Clinician protective gloves

The Biogel PI UltraTouch S surgical glove by Mölnlycke provides surgeons and their teams with dermatologically appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) that is vital to a safe, effective, and efficient operating room. Frequent handwashing and exposure to chemicals all contribute to occupational contact dermatitis. The glove is made without the chemical accelerators known to cause allergic contact dermatitis. It has received FDA 510k clearance for reduced potential for sensitizing users to chemical additives, the first sterile surgical glove to be awarded this claim.

Electrosurgery cable testing

The Cable Continuity Tester from Healthmark Industries works to test the quality of monopolar and bipolar cords for safety in care. The tester is user-friendly and portable and comes with a 9V battery and a carrying case. For a test, the “ON” switch to bipolar or monopolar should be positioned. If the green light remains illuminated, then the cable passed testing. If the light flickers or doesn’t illuminate, this indicates the cable failed testing.
