Choosing Gloves Based On Specific Health-Care Task
Procedural recommendations for exam gloves are generally based
on the risk of exposure to potentially infectious materials and
the amount of time a glove will be worn. Additionally, the sterile
status and the material type must be taken into account. Since surgical
gloves are optimized for the surgical environment, material type
and individual surgeon comfort are the primary selection factors.
Use the following reference materials to select the right glove
for your particular task:
