Use of disposable gloves

The following are the necessary steps to wear disposable latex gloves:

1, find the right size: before wearing gloves, be sure to find disposable gloves that suit your hand size. If the glove size is not suitable, it is easy to be damaged, endangering the safety of users. For example, gloves that are too tight are easy to be punctured and torn, which will reduce the flexibility of hands; Gloves that are too loose wrinkle easily and are difficult to grasp.

The wearer can straighten his fingers to determine whether the gloves are too small. If the gloves are stretched, the gloves are too small. Fractures of thumb and palm indicate that gloves may be too small.

2. Wear gloves: The first step is to wear gloves in a clean place. For example, in the laboratory, gloves should not be placed where they will come into contact with harmful chemicals. Because doing so will eventually expose the wearer's skin to chemicals, leading to health risks.

3. At the same time, before wearing gloves, you should take off all the jewelry on your wrist and wash your hands. Dirty hands will pollute the inside of gloves. In addition to protecting the wearer, this step can also protect others who will come into contact with the wearer. Medical staff will come into contact with patients, so they don't want pathogens or chemicals on patients' hands to contaminate gloves.

Once you make sure that the workbench and hands are clean, you can start wearing gloves. The key is that the wearer should try to avoid touching the outside of gloves. First, put the gloves on the table. Then, grab the glove with one hand. Put gloves on habitual hands until they reach their fingertips. Remember to touch only the inside of gloves. Again, put the gloves on the other hand. Once both gloves are put on, the wearer can touch the outside of the glove to ensure that it fits the hand.
