1. Wearing gloves method
Hold the right hand inside the glove reflex, take out a pair of gloves, the left hand first into the left glove, after wearing gloves, the left hand into the right hand reflex outside the circle, and then the right hand into the glove (first wear the right glove can also be); the reflex part of the glove, pull the cuff above the wrist does not show; before wearing gloves, the hand can not touch the outside of the glove, has been wearing gloves, can not touch the skin.
2. Wear double gloves
Wearing double gloves can reduce the chances of the wearer being exposed to hazards. If you need to wear double gloves in specific operations (such as chemotherapy, bone marrow aspiration), you need loose gloves so that you can put one over the other.
3. Change gloves promptly
After touching a suspected contaminated area or item from the same patient, MedinHealth should change gloves before having to touch mucous membranes. Before touching non-contaminants or needing to dispose of other patients, all gloves should be removed and immediately washed or cleaned with disinfectant solution to avoid spreading microorganisms to other patients or items.
4. Time of glove wearing
The longer gloves are worn, the more likely the protective barrier will be damaged.
5. Removal of gloves
During use, the source of infection can contaminate the outer surface of the gloves. It is important to take off the gloves correctly. When taking off the gloves, MediRen Medical should not pull forcibly, but should turn the gloves over and take them off gently, and try not to touch the outside of the gloves with your hands. The gloves taken off should be disinfected in time and should not be thrown into the waste bin. Wrongly taking off the gloves will probably lead to the spread of contaminants outside the gloves, at which point the good barrier function also seems meaningless.
