クリーンルームガウン手順: 付属書 1 コンプライアンスガイド

導入

Cleanroom gowning procedures are one of the most important personnel contamination-control measures in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Annex 1 (2022 revision) made gowning expectations more explicit by requiring formal gowning qualification, ongoing monitoring, and tighter controls over entry to Grade A environments.

Gowning failures are among the top contamination sources in cleanroom operations. A strong gowning program should not only define what PPE to wear, but also how to wear it, how to qualify personnel, how to monitor compliance, and how to prevent contamination during de-gowning.

規制要件

Annex 1 expects grade-specific gowning controls and requires that gowning for Grade A areas be formally qualified. Personnel must demonstrate that they can gown correctly and repeatedly without creating unacceptable microbiological contamination.

グレード別のガウン要件

グレード A (ISO 5)

Grade B (ISO 5 at rest / ISO 7 in operation)

Grade B typically requires sterile full-body gowning including coveralls, hood, gloves, and shoe covers. The control objective is full coverage with sterilized garments, as in Grade A, since Grade B is the background for Grade A operations.

グレード C / D (ISO 8 / 9)

グレード C および D では、通常、ヘアカバー、白衣またはスモック、手袋、専用の履物または靴カバーなど、汚染リスクに適したクリーンルーム用の服装が必要です。

ガウンの手順

A Grade A/B gowning sequence follows a clear logic: preparation first, then head and face coverage, then body coverage, then gloves and footwear, followed by final visual inspection.

Cleanroom Gowning Checklist (Grade A/B)

Use this checklist at the gowning room mirror or as the basis for a supervisor sign-off sheet. Adapt it to your own SOP.

• ☐ Jewelry, watches, phones and cosmetics removed; street clothes changed per SOP
• ☐ Hands washed, dried and sanitized before touching any garment
• ☐ Garment pack checked: correct size, intact packaging, sterilization indicator and expiry OK
• ☐ Hood or hair cover on — no hair, ears or neck exposed
• ☐ Facemask and goggles fitted with no gap to the hood
• ☐ Coverall donned without touching the floor or walls; zipper fully closed; hood skirt tucked inside the collar
• ☐ Gloves sanitized/donned and overlapping the coverall cuffs — no exposed skin at the wrists
• ☐ Boots or over-shoes on, with coverall legs tucked inside, crossing the step-over bench correctly
• ☐ Full mirror check: no tears, gaps, exposed skin or visible soiling
• ☐ Supervisor or trained reviewer verification recorded before entry

ガウン資格

Annex 1 requires that personnel entering Grade A environments demonstrate successful gowning qualification. In practice, many sites require 3 consecutive gowning tests with fully acceptable results before personnel may enter Grade A areas.

ガウンの取り外し手順

De-gowning is often treated as a lower-risk activity, but it can become a cross-contamination event if PPE is removed incorrectly. The basic principle is controlled removal inside-out, with waste segregation and hand washing at the end.

ガウンモニタリング

A compliant gowning system requires more than initial training. It requires continuous visual oversight, periodic microbiological testing, and annual requalification. These controls are central to a compliant gowning program.

よくある問題 & 修復

The most common gowning failures are hair exposure, PPE gaps, torn gloves, contaminated PPE, and poor fit. These are exactly the kinds of issues that should drive retraining, size review, and tighter supervision.
