What are Surgical Gloves?

Product Category:

Protective Equipment

Indicated Use:

Surgical Gloves are single-use protective gloves used to prevent cross-contamination between healthcare professionals and patients during a procedure. Gloves help prevent direct contact with blood, bodily fluids, and other substances and are often worn in medical settings like exam rooms or emergency departments.

Disposable surgical gloves are produced in different polymers including latex, nitrile rubber, and polyisoprene. They are available in a wide range of sizes, from 6.0 to 8.5, as precise sizing is essential for the precision and sensitivity necessary for these types of procedures.

Surgical Gloves are manufactured by AdvaCare Pharma, an American-owned pharmaceutical company with extensive experience in worldwide distribution. These medical-grade surgical gloves are produced in CE/ISO-certified facilities, where regular inspections guarantee that our facilities and our products meet stringent health, safety, and environmental standards.

Latex

Latex surgical gloves offer exceptional elasticity, which allows for a comfortable fit and conformity to the hand shape. Latex gloves offer an elongation limit of approximately 750% and exhibit remarkable flexibility and stretchability. They provide reliable protection against punctures, as well as chemical and pathogen exposure.

It should be noted that orthopedic gloves offer the highest level of protection, followed by standard latex gloves, and finally, latex microsurgery gloves, which are recommended for low-risk procedures.

$Surgical Gloves Latex$

Nitrile

Nitrile surgical gloves are made from high-quality synthetic polymers, a material that offers superior resistance to punctures and corrosive or irritable chemicals. Unlike latex gloves, nitrile gloves are less likely to cause allergic reactions or skin irritation, making them a suitable alternative for individuals with latex allergies.

Nitrile surgical gloves provide reliable protection while maintaining a high level of comfort and dexterity during surgical procedures.

Polyisoprene

Polyisoprene surgical gloves offer a high level of protection and exceptional elasticity. They are similar in properties to latex gloves, which makes them an ideal alternative for individuals with latex allergies or sensitivities. While polyisoprene gloves are slightly more permeable than latex, they still provide comparable resistance to punctures. Although they are the most expensive glove material, their benefits make them a valuable option for individuals with latex allergies who require a suitable alternative.

Powdered

Powdered gloves are often made with cornstarch or a similar powder. This powder coating on the inside of the glove helps reduce friction, making the glove easier to put on and take off.

The powder also helps absorb moisture and keep your hands dry. It should be noted that there are some potential drawbacks to powdered gloves, such as the risk of allergic reactions or the possibility of powder contamination.

Powder-Free

Powder-Free gloves are gloves that do not have a layer of powder on the inside. This style of surgical glove has a lower risk of allergic reactions and a lower risk of contamination.

They are more versatile and eco-friendly, but they can be more difficult to put on and take off compared to powdered gloves.

Micro-Rough

Micro-Rough surgical gloves feature micro-textured fingertips and a matte finish, enhancing grip control while maintaining tactile sensitivity.

With a non-slip grip, micro-rough surgical gloves ensure reliable performance even in wet or oily environments. They are particularly well-suited for tasks that require precise handling and a secure grip, such as medical procedures and laboratory work that demand accuracy.

Smooth

Smooth surgical gloves provide a consistently smooth surface across the entire hand of the glove and do not have textured fingertips.

Smooth examination gloves offer a comfortable fit and are easy to don and doff. They are commonly used across many types of industries and sectors, including both medical and non-medical applications.

Uses

What are Surgical Gloves used for?

Surgical Gloves serve as indispensable personal protective equipment (PPE) in the realm of medical practices, finding their primary utility in creating a robust barrier between the hands of healthcare professionals and potential contaminants during various medical procedures and examinations.

These gloves safeguard both the healthcare providers and the patients they serve. They act as a defence, preventing direct skin contact with bodily fluids, blood, and other potentially infectious or harmful substances. The significance of Surgical Gloves extends across various healthcare settings, protecting the safety and well-being of patients and healthcare workers alike.

How are Surgical Gloves worn?

Using Surgical Gloves as instructed is paramount to preserve the sterility required in medical environments and to mitigate the risk of cross-contamination. Healthcare professionals must check that these gloves fit securely, enveloping the entire hand and extending over the wrist. The meticulous donning of gloves is a prerequisite before any patient interaction or exposure to potentially contaminated surfaces.

Equally relevant is the correct doffing procedure, as gloves must be carefully removed and replaced between patient encounters. These meticulous practices are foundational in minimizing the potential transmission of infections and preserving the integrity of the healthcare environment.

Are there any storage recommendations for Surgical Gloves?

The storage of unused Surgical Gloves demands particular attention to retain their efficacy and sterility. These gloves should be securely stored in their original packaging or within a designated container, strategically shielded from any sources of contamination.

The storage area should meet stringent cleanliness standards, devoid of direct sunlight exposure and shielded from any heat sources. Checking that Surgical Gloves remain in a pristine state is required to guarantee their efficacy when called upon in the clinical setting.

How should used Surgical Gloves be disposed of?

After each use, healthcare professionals should adhere to established disposal protocols:

The process begins with the careful removal of one glove by gently grasping the cuff and pulling it off, subsequently turning it inside out during the removal process.
The removed glove should be held within the gloved hand while the other glove is removed following the same meticulous procedure.
These used gloves should then be placed within the appropriate waste bin, following the precise guidelines and regulations governing the disposal of medical waste.

FAQs

Which material of Surgical Gloves should be used?

The choice of material is dependent on factors like allergies, sensitivity, and the specific procedure. Latex gloves are a popular choice due to their excellent fit, comfort, and tactile sensitivity, but they can be problematic for individuals with latex allergies. Nitrile surgical gloves are a suitable alternative for individuals with latex allergies or sensitivities.

Should powdered or powder-free Surgical Gloves be used?

Powder-free gloves lower the risk of allergic reactions and reduce the spread of powder particles in the operating room environment. Powdered gloves help to reduce friction within the glove, which makes it easier to put on and take off. The powder can also enhance tactile sensitivity and absorb moisture and perspiration.

Which texture of Surgical Gloves should be used?

Smooth surgical gloves provide a natural feel and excellent sensitivity, which can make them suitable for delicate procedures. Textured micro-rough fingertips offer enhanced grip and control, which can be ideal for procedures needing a firm grasp or if dealing with slippery objects or fluids.
