Putting gloves on<br />
Follow the steps below in putting gloves on.<br />
Step 1. Preparation for putting on surgical gloves. “Gloves are cuffed to make it easier to put<br />
them on without contaminating them. When putting on sterile gloves, remember that the first<br />
glove should be picked up by the cuff only (see drawing below). The second glove should then<br />
be touched only by the other sterile glove.” Follow steps 2-6 as illustrated below.<br />
