When Should You Use Sterile Gloves?

Unlike standard "examination gloves" which are packed loose in boxes of 100, sterile gloves are sterilized (usually by gamma irradiation) and packed individually.

**They are required for:**

  • Surgical Procedures: Any operation involving an incision.
  • Invasive Care: Urinary catheterisation, deep wound dressing, or delivery of babies.
  • Immuno-Compromised Patients: Where the risk of infection must be absolutely zero.
