FAQs

What are Surgical Gloves Used for?

The purpose of surgical gloves is to protect patients in hospitals and medical buildings from the spread of micro-organisms that may cause infection or preventable illnesses. The gloves collect the bacteria a medical professional may encounter and prevent it from coming into contact with a patient.

What’s the Difference Between Surgical Gloves and Latex Gloves?

Surgical gloves tend to be made of nitrile, as the commonality of allergies to nitrile is far less in comparison to latex. Allergies should be considered for both the surgeon and the patient. Additionally, surgical gloves allow more dexterity which medical professionals need for precision.

What’s the Difference Between Medical and Surgical Gloves?

Medical gloves are intended for examination, whereas surgical gloves are for operations. Surgical gloves are more precisely sized and allow for higher dexterity which grants the precision required to perform surgeries accurately.

Why Are Surgical Gloves Usually Blue?

Surgical gloves are often blue for several reasons. The colour provides strong visibility against the white of surgical drapes and skin, making it easier to detect contaminants or tears. It conveys cleanliness and professionalism in the surgical environment and it helps identify different materials or levels of protection, as manufacturers use various colours for their products. Additionally, many blue gloves are powder-free, reducing the risk of allergic reactions and promoting a safer environment for patients. Overall, the use of blue gloves enhances both safety and efficiency during surgical procedures.
