About Medical Disposable Gloves
Medical disposable gloves are used in performing medical procedures and examinations to help prevent possible contamination between healthcare personnel and patients. The gloves are made from different polymers, such as neoprene, latex, vinyl and nitrile rubber, and available in both powdered and powder-free forms.
Cornstarch is usually used to lubricate the powdered gloves, which makes them easier to be worn on hands. It is preferred over talcum and lycopodium powder that cause tissue irritation. However, cornstarch may also affect healing if it gets into tissues during surgery. Hence, powder-free gloves have found wide acceptance and usage among healthcare personnel in surgeries or any other sensitive operations.
Medical disposable gloves are mainly of two types: Surgical and examination. While surgical gloves have precise sizing with better sensitivity, examination gloves are available in both sterile and non-sterile types. However, surgical gloves are usually chosen sterile.
Technavio analysts forecast the global medical disposable gloves market to grow at a CAGR of 6.08% during 2014-2019.
