The correct approach is to change gloves immediately. ?
1. The reasons and significance of damaged gloves during catheterization operations
Gloves are a necessity for nurses to perform medical operations to ensure hygiene and safety. In catheterization operations, the importance of gloves is even more prominent, because instruments such as catheters directly enter the urethra. Once the gloves are damaged, bacterial infection will occur and pose a threat to the patient's health. ?
2. How to judge whether gloves are damaged
During catheterization operations, gloves are often damaged due to instruments or other reasons, and nurses need to pay attention to observation. The way to judge is to take off the gloves from your fingers in sequence and check for holes or tears. If gloves are found to be damaged, they should be replaced immediately.
3. Correct steps for changing gloves
During the catheterization operation, if the gloves are found to be damaged, the nurse should change new gloves immediately. The specific treatment method is to first gently tap the patient's parts and equipment to make the bacteria fall to the ground under the vibration; then take off the gloves (the inner side does not touch the outer surface), put the trash can next to the bed next to you and hold it with your arms. Hold the glove between your thumb and forefinger, roll it in the palm of your hand, throw it in the trash, and wash and disinfect the upper part of your arm. Then, wear new gloves for operation to ensure the safety of medical operations. ?
4. How to prevent glove breakage
In order to avoid the impact of glove breakage on the patient's health, nurses should carefully check whether the gloves are intact before performing catheterization to avoid wearing them. Use gloves. At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid unnecessary friction or tearing during operation to ensure the integrity of the gloves.
