Definitions

  • a long standing problem with medical gloves is that they can be difficult to don. In order to mitigate this difficulty it has been a long standing practice to powder the gloves so that the hand slips more easily into the glove. -However, a number of medical authorities and a number of glove users are dissatisfied with the use of powder as a donning aid. This dissatisfaction stems from practical difficulties such as the occasional need to remove excess powder after donning and from concerns that some powders could lead to granulomas in some circumstances.
  • the first solution is to employ a natural rubber that has been treated with chlorine so that the medical glove is more easily donned.
  • the alternative solution is to bond a layer of synthetic polymer to the inside (that is wearer contacting surface) of the medical glove and thereby render it more easily donned.
  • chlorinated medical gloves are given in US Patent No. 4304008 and examples of providing a layer of synthetic polymer on medical gloves are given in US Patents Nos. 3813695, 4482577, 4499154, 4548844, 4575476, 3856561, 3919442, 3967014, 4027060, 4082862, 3286011 and 3411982.
  • Chlorinated medical gloves can be manufactured without the use of organic solvents and have found widespread use. Unfortunately such gloves are only easily donned if the hands are dry and many users (in particular many surgeons) have damp hands at the point where they will don the gloves (for example, a surgeon's hands will still be damp following having scrubbed with an antibacterial agent). This severely limits the use of chlorinated medical gloves.
  • the present invention provides a medical glove that is readily donable by the dry or damp hand without requiring an inside layer of synthetic polymer or a powder.
  • the medical glove according to the present invention comprises a microtextured--medical glove provided on the inside surface with one or both of a surfactant or a silicone.
  • microtextured means that the glove surface has been roughened, for example by treatment with halogen or an acid (see for example "Surface Treatment of Rubber to Reduce Friction" by A D Roberts and C A Brackley in J Nat Rubb Res 4(1), 1-21).
  • the present invention provides a medical glove which may be donned by the dry or damp hand which comprises a microtextured medical glove the inside surface of which is provided with one or both of a surfactant or a silicone.
  • the microtextured glove may be microtextured on the inside only or on both the inside and the outside.
  • microtextured medical gloves for use in the invention may be obtained by treating the surface of a glove by halogenation, or an acid (especially an oxidising acid) .
  • the microtextured medical glove is a halogenated medical glove.
  • the microtextured medical glove is a chlorinated medical glove.
  • chlorinated medical gloves One of the .advantages of employing chlorinated medical gloves is that they will be familiar to many users as a number of excellent commercial chlorinated gloves are already available such as Ansell's Powder Free, Sensotech G204 from LRC and Pristine from Fuji Latex and Perry Style 47 from Smith & Nephew Perry.
  • the gloves of the present invention are most suitably surgeons gloves.
  • the present invention provides a medical glove which may be donned by the dry or damp hand which comprises a chlorinated medical glove the inside surface of which is provided with one or both of a surfactant or a silicone.
  • the surfactant employed may be any suitable surfactant for use on the skin, that is a skin compatible surfactant.
  • Such surfactants may be ionic or non-ionic. Mixtures of surfactants that is mixtures containing more than one surfactant, for example, two surfactants may be used if.desired.

Any counter ion present will be skin compatible, for example an alkali metal ion such as sodium or potassium of which sodium is preferred.
  • Particularly suitable anionic surfactants include alkyl and alkenyl sulphates, for example those wherein the lipophilic moiety has from 12 to 18 carbon atoms.
  • Preferred anionic surfactants include sodium lauryl sulphate.
  • Suitable amphoteric surfactants include those containing the above described cationic and anionic groups.
