Journal of Fashion Technology -  Juniper publishers Abstract The recent years has witnessed revolutionary breakthroughs in the area of medical textiles. Some significant contributions have been reviewed in this article. A novel multi layered knitted structure with the coating of the nano fibrous web has been developed for using as aesophaegal prosthesis. This has been achieved through knitting of polyglycolic acid braided yarn into tubular form and coating polycaprolactanenano fibres on the surface. Drug loaded antimicrobial silk suture have been developed for use in both wound closure and wound healing with the object of preventing infections at the surgical area. The material has been found to have satisfactory suture properties. A breathable woven surgical gown with antimicrobial and liquid repellent properties has been developed by finishing with nanoparticles of silver and fluorocarbon using pad-dry-cure method. The coating parameters have been optimized suitably. Cellu
