Tech in Surgery Prep / Unit 17   TSC 410 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Hands Stay Inside the Cuffs

Captions available

The idea

For closed gloving, the hands stay inside the gown sleeves and do not touch the cuff edges until the gloves are on.

In practice

The gloves are handled through the fabric of the sleeves, so bare skin never touches the outside of a glove.

Where people slip

If a hand slips through the cuff early, the method becomes open gloving, and facility policy decides how to continue.
