Protective medical gloves are tools for protecting hands from injury. In medical treatment, it is mainly used for medical inspection isolation protection. There are mainly medical examination gloves, sterile gloves, medical X-ray protective gloves, etc.
What are the classifications of medical gloves?
There are many types of protective gloves. Medical protective gloves include examination gloves, sterile medical gloves, medical X-ray protective gloves, etc.
1. Medical glove inspection
Management Category: Class I Medical Devices, Classification Name: General Medical Supplies
1) Background and structure
It is a medical polymer material and product. Traditional testing gloves are generally made of polyethylene (PE). PE is a thermoplastic resin polymerized from ethylene. PE is odorless, non-toxic, feels like wax, has good low temperature resistance (the lowest operating temperature can reach -100 ~-70), has good chemical stability, and can resist the erosion of most acids and alkalis (acids with oxidizing properties). ). It is insoluble in common solvents at room temperature, with low absorption and good electrical insulation. However, this kind of gloves has no elasticity and is very loose when wearing it, so it does not feel good to touch the patient when examining the patient, and it is not easy to touch the lump on the patient's body. touch feeling. As shown in Figure 1.
A new medical detection glove made of ethylene-ethylene copolymer (EVA) was developed. The EVA amplification film was added to the glove body to increase the touch feeling, so that the lumps and nodules that could not be touched with bare hands can be clearly touched. (David Asher, Northern Exposure (US TV), Health) Multiple vents are installed in the middle part of the glove body and the EVA amplification film, and the gas entering the glove is discharged without affecting the touch feeling. The EVA amplification film is in the armor body, the size is consistent with the entire armor body, and the thickness is between 0.01 ~ 0.08 mm. The surface of the EVA amplification film is coated with nano-liquid to form a nano-liquid film with a thickness of 4-9 microns. Glove shapes are divided into dumb glove type and five-finger glove type. Generally, there are 3~5 snorkel yokes, and the diameter is 3~8 mm.
2) Purpose
For examining breasts, rectum, lower extremity arteries, etc.
Sterile Medical Gloves
Management Category: Type Medical Devices, Category Name: Surgical Gloves
1) Background
It belongs to medical polymer materials and products. General sterile rubber gloves are used in hospital operating rooms. The disadvantage of this type of gloves is that the production process is different and the talc coating is too little. It is very laborious to use on doctors with large hands. Most of the hands are not soaked in alcohol before the operation, and the arms are smeared with the sterilizing solution, and the arms are astringent after applying the sterilizing solution. When wearing gloves, the cover on the back of the hand can be easily reversed, and the back of the glove is in contact with the skin, which may cause contamination and cannot meet the sterility requirements. See Figure 2.
A new type of disposable sterile gloves is newly developed. A peelable sticker is attached to the outside of the back of the glove, away from the covering. The edge of the adhesive film has an exposed angle, which reduces the contact between the outside of the glove and the skin, prevents secondary pollution, and satisfies Sterility requirements. As shown in Figure 3, 1 is the sticker, 2 is the back of the glove, 3 is the corner exposed, and 4 is the cover.
2) Purpose
It is used for surgery and inspection requiring sterile conditions.
