Choosing exam gloves that don't cause me to break out with dermatitis?!
Question: Choosing exam gloves that don't cause me to break out with dermatitis?
I used some Nitile, non latex, powder free exam gloves and they made me break out in dermatitis, now I'm looking into buying some new gloves that won't do this to me. My Dental clinic is Latex-Free. Anyone have any suggestions on Latex free, powder free gloves?
Answers:
Fellow doctors, not wearing gloves would not be practicing at the standard of care necessary to protect our patients.
Since Nitrile is not an option, the only thing left to use is vinyl gloves. I used to use vinyl before Nitrile was available and found them stiff.
