ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To provide the investigative data for timely changing medical gloves according to the study on the dynamic change of physical property of the gloves during abdominal open procedure.METHODS The gloves used in the abdominal open procedures were collected.The tensile strength,break elongation and the morphological values of three types of the gloves(No.6.5,7 and 7.5) were measured and recorded before and after their using at the time point of 0.0h,1.5h,2.5h,3.5h,4.5h,5.5h and 6.5h during operation.RESULTS The tensile strength decreased significantly(P
