Disposable Surgical Gloves

Disposable Surgical Gloves

In the operating room, everything must remain sterile throughout the entire procedure. One of the most critical parts of infection control is ensuring the medical team has the proper personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves.

Rely on SUNLINE Supply to provide your operating room with the durable surgical gloves needed for any procedure.

Uses of Disposable Gloves in Surgical Settings

Because sterile gloves can cost more than the non-sterile option, medical professionals need to determine which situations require surgical gloves. Instances in which sterile gloves are recommended include:

• Performing or assisting with an invasive surgery
• Examining or treating an open wound
• Maintaining an aseptic environment
• Performing procedures with possible exposure to blood or pathogens

How Often Should Surgeries Restock Gloves?

Before putting on the gloves, surgeons must “scrub in” outside the sterile environment. This process requires intense scrubbing of the hands, under fingernails and up exposed arms for the gloves to stay decontaminated. Once a professional’s hands are clean, gloves keep them and their patient safe.

Even when exercising the most care, gloves can rip or become compromised during long procedures. Make sure plenty of PPE is available to be as efficient and safe as possible. With SUNLINE Supply, we fulfill bulk orders and ship purchases daily to help your team keep your inventory well-stocked.

Best Types of Disposable Surgical Gloves

SUNLINE Supply offers reliable surgical gloves that feature several varieties of sizes and thicknesses to find the most suitable option for each hand and application.

Latex Surgical Gloves

Latex gloves are the standard option for surgical settings due to their flexible fit and elasticity. They are also the most comfortable and fit the hand best, allowing for more precise work like surgery. Latex comes from natural rubber, making these gloves biodegradable and better for the environment after disposal.

Some people are allergic to latex, which is why we offer alternatives.

Nitrile Surgical Gloves

Medical grade nitrile gloves have been tested through the FDA guidelines, providing adequate strength and barrier during surgical procedures. They are made with synthetic rubber suitable for those with latex allergies. Nitrile gloves are resistant to chemicals and punctures with protection from harmful microorganisms.
