Improve Double-Gloving Compliance

As the healthcare industry evolves, the pressure to improve patient outcomes and meet compliance standards continues to increase.

Perforation of surgical gloves are common, occurring up to 43% of cases.1 Up to 70% of nurses and doctors have experienced a needlestick or sharps injury and 44% occur in the operating room.2

Double gloving is advocated by many international health and perioperative organizations. Understanding the evidence-based rationale for double gloving in perioperative practice is key to improving compliance outcomes.

The higher protection against bloodborne transmission and infections offered by a two-colored double gloving system greatly reduces the risk of perforation.1 This system enhances visual identification in the event of a breach, with the inner glove reducing exposure to patient blood by up to 87% when the outer glove is punctured.

The pre-donned, two-gloves-in-one poly-pouch save time and simplify double gloving, eliminating frustrations and barriers to double gloving acceptance.

By utilizing pre-donned gloves for surgical and invasive procedures, hospitals can meet compliance guidelines recommended by leading organizations such as AORN, WHO, ICS, and ECDC, endorsing double-gloving as a best practice for enhanced safety.

This helps eliminate barriers to double-gloving including; product utilization, product availability, storage space,, glove selection & staff acceptance.

USP (United States Pharmacopeial) is a guide based on two expert panels on handling hazardous drugs for increased occupational safety. The requirements in USP <800> and USP<797> provide direction on appropriate PPE regulation when handling hazardous drugs. GAMMEX PI PLUS helps pharmacies efficiently meet all USP mandates for glove PPE.

In ambulatory surgical centers, where storage space is limited and the pressure for 100% compliance is high, the Glove-In-Glove system can help ASC's improve safety protocols, meet compliance requirements, and maintain efficient use of their limited storage space.
