Universal precautions mandate the use of examination and surgical gloves to protect the health professional from contact with the HIV virus. The purpose of this paper is to provide a review of the literature on the barrier properties of examination and surgical gloves measured by water leakage and viral penetration. The literature data indicate that glove composition, glove manufacturer, glove design (examination vs. surgical), and mechanical manipulation had considerable influence on glove performance when tested for leakage and viral penetration. In general, latex gloves were found to be superior to vinyl gloves as barriers to water leakage and viral penetration.
通用防护措施要求使用检查手套和手术手套，以保护医护人员免受艾滋病毒感染。本文的目的是综述有关通过漏水和病毒渗透来测量检查手套和手术手套防护性能的文献。文献数据表明，在测试手套的漏水和病毒渗透情况时，手套的成分、制造商、设计（检查手套与手术手套）以及机械操作对其性能有相当大的影响。一般来说，在防止漏水和病毒渗透方面，乳胶手套被认为优于乙烯基手套。
