Tech in Surgery Prep / Unit 17   TSC 414 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Choosing Glove Size and Material

Captions available

The idea

Sterile gloves come in many sizes and in latex or latex-free materials, and the right fit matters for both safety and dexterity.

In practice

A good fit allows comfortable movement without friction or fatigue; latex-free gloves are used for staff or patients with latex allergy.

Where people slip

Gloves that are too large snag and tear; gloves that are too small tire the hands.
