Dusting powder in surgeon's gloves. A historial review.
The use of surgical gloves for any surgical procedure, or any event which may involve the spillage of body fluids, is now well known and even expected. In these days of HIV and other infectious diseases, protection for the patient is as important as protection for the carer and it is therefore vital that the gloves/protection will not impart any harm either to the person wearing them or to the person who is being touched.
