Why do Doctors Wear Gowns and Masks During Operations?

The doctors and nurses wear special gowns and masks in an operation theatre. These help to prevent bacteria and other germs travelling from the body or clothes of the hospital staff into the patient's wound during the operation. These clothes are sterilized so that they are free of bacteria. Even the operation theatre is sterilized and the air is cleaned to remove bacteria.
