Mascarilla<\/h2>\n

Durante el Imperio Romano, Plinio el Viejo relat\u00f3 que se usaban las vejigas de los animales para proteger a los mineros de la inhalaci\u00f3n del \u00f3xido rojo o cinabrio.
\nLa mascarilla \u201cpico de p\u00e1jaro\u201d fue creada en Europa en el siglo XVII como un mecanismo de protecci\u00f3n para los m\u00e9dicos que trataban a los infectados por la peste negra.<\/p>\n

Protecci\u00f3n auditiva<\/h2>\n

La primera patente de tapones para los o\u00eddos se obtuvo en 1884. En 1907, el farmac\u00e9utico alem\u00e1n Max Negwer cre\u00f3 los primeros tapones modernos para los trabajadores de las f\u00e1bricas. Tras la I Guerra Mundial, cuando los soldados volv\u00edan a casa con sordera, se dispararon sus ventas internacionales.<\/p>\n

Calzado<\/h2>\n

Los primeros zapatos protectores fueron los zuecos de madera, usados por los campesinos franceses para protegerse de los instrumentos a\ufb01lados y pesados del campo o de las pisadas de los animales. Tras la II Guerra Mundial, se inventaron las primeras botas de seguridad con punta de acero para los trabajadores de la industria alemana.<\/p>\n

Casco<\/h2>\n

Los trabajadores de las minas de oro fabricaron sombreros con forma de bomb\u00edn en \ufb01eltro duro y rellenos de algod\u00f3n para proteger sus cabezas de los escombros.
\nEn 1919 la empresa californiana Bullard Company patent\u00f3 un sombrero duro de lona al vapor, pegamento y pintura negra, que inici\u00f3 el uso generalizado de los cascos.<\/p>\n

Protecci\u00f3n ocular<\/h2>\n

Los esquimales crearon unas gafas para protegerse de los rayos del sol re\ufb02ejados en la nieve. Eran de madera, hueso o mar\ufb01l, con unas hendiduras que permit\u00edan ver pero \u201c\ufb01ltraban\u201d la luminosidad ambiental. Se han hallado algunas con m\u00e1s de 2.000 a\u00f1os de antig\u00fcedad.
\nLas primeras gafas de seguridad contra impactos las desarroll\u00f3 en 1909 la estadounidense Julius King Optical Company.<\/p>\n

Guantes<\/h2>\n

El uso de guantes quir\u00fargicos se atribuye a William Stewart Halsted, un cirujano estadounidense que operaba con la enfermera Caroline Hampton, quien sufri\u00f3 una dermatitis provocada por los antis\u00e9pticos. En 1890 Halsted dise\u00f1\u00f3 unos guantes de goma resistentes al calor y a los qu\u00edmicos. El eczema de Hampton desapareci\u00f3. A \ufb01nales del siglo XIX estos guantes fueron obligatorios para m\u00e9dicos, cirujanos y enfermeras.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/section>\n
