They are required for any invasive procedure and when contact with any sterile site, tissue, or body cavity is expected (PIDAC, 2012). Sterile gloves help prevent surgical site infections and reduce the risk of exposure to blood and body fluid pathogens for the health care worker.
When should a nurse wear sterile gloves?
When coming into touch with a sterile spot, tissue, or bodily cavity, sterile medical gloves must be used. They are required for just about any surgical intervention and invasive contact with the human body. Because skin cannot be sanitized, surgical staff must wear disposable sterile gloves.
In what situations should sterile gloves be used?
Gloves should therefore be used during all patient-care activities that may involve exposure to blood and all other body fluid (including contact with mucous membrane and non-intact skin), during contact precautions and outbreak situations.
