From: Evaluation of the effects on the tensile properties of medical gloves after repeated disinfection
Disinfectant | Treatment steps |
|---|---|
EBHR | 1. Press two pumps of EBHR onto the gloved hand 2. Press both hands together and rub 10 times, palm-to-palm 3. With palms to the back of your hands, cross the hands and fold them, then rub left and right hands 10 times each 4. Interweave palms with fingers facing each other and rub them 10 times 5. Bend the fingers and rotate the knuckles in the palm of the other hand, rubbing them alternately 10 times |
6. Hold the thumb of the left hand with the right hand, rotate, and rub it alternately 10 times 7. Bring the tips of your five fingers together, rotate, and rub them in the palm of the other hand, alternating for 10 times each 8. Dry for 1 min 9. The completion of the above process is considered as one disinfection Duration: 90 s. | |
Disinfectant containing chlorine | 1. Chlorine disinfectants of different concentrations are prepared and used on-site to avoid the volatilization of effective disinfectant components 2. Put on the gloves and immerse gloved hands into various dilutions of chlorine-based disinfectant for 1 min, ensuring complete palm coverage while keeping the wrist opening above the solution3. Allow the solution to dry for 1 min to guarantee complete decontamination 4. Rinse the gloves thoroughly with clean water 5. Use dry toilet paper to remove any excess disinfectant 6. The completion of the above process is considered as one disinfection Duration: 2–3 min |
