How to avoid breakage of medical gloves？

    Medical gloves can effectively isolate medical contamination and prevent cross-infection,it has now become a must-have item in hospitals.In clinical practice, especially in the presence of infection risks in the operation of the medical staff most worried about the damage and fracture of medical gloves, medical gloves and rupture is the most common problems during the operation, especially in plastic surgery.

    There are many factors that can cause a rupture or puncture of a medical glove, such as equipment damage, bone tissue puncture and rupture due to reduced glove strength.Damage and breakage of gloves can affect surgical accuracy to a certain extent, and there is a higher risk of cross-infection between staff and patients.

    Therefore, the puncture resistance of medical gloves needs to be tested in advance. When encountering sharp objects in use, it is easy to cause perforation damage.To prevent this risk, many medical researchers chose to wear a pair of high safety coefficient of medical gloves to prevent breakage.After statistics, after using this method, double gloves perforation rate less than single glove perforation rate of only 10%. But with double medical gloves, fingers become less flexible and touch sensitive.The effect is not only bad, but also affects the accuracy of surgery to a certain extent, and the risk of surgery also increases. It is a good practice to strictly monitor the quality of medical gloves prior to use to ensure that the puncture force is strong enough to reduce the incidence of perforation and damage, and to reduce the risk of cross-infection.

    In addition to ensuring good quality of medical gloves, medical personnel should also change medical gloves in time according to actual use.
