Medical headgear

An earcup for a medical headgear includes a body and a gasket attached to the body and formed of an open-cell foam. The earcup with the body and the gasket is a frequency-dependent auditory filter providing sound attenuation generally increasing as a function of frequency.

A flexible band for a medical headgear comprises an inner surface, an opposite outer surface, and a non-stretch central portion having a friction pad disposed on the inner surface. The friction pad is formed from a grip or tacky material and is disposed at least partially between the inner surface and the outer surface of the non-stretch central portion in a solidified state of the friction pad.

A medical headgear is disclosed having a flexible band having an inner surface and an opposite outer surface. The band includes a non-stretch central portion having a first side and an opposite second side, a first elastic portion connected to the first side, and a second elastic portion connected to the second side.

A cap having ear pieces and an eyepiece. The ear pieces are preferably connected to an audio device that can play stored audio and/or rebroadcast ambient sounds at a reduced audio level. The ear pieces preferable provide sound attenuation of at least 20 dB. The stored audio may include sounds that simulate sounds heard by a fetus while in the womb.
