Glove Use (continuation)


   The Glove Pyramid – to aid decision making on when to wear (and not wear) gloves.
  Gloves must be worn according to STANDARD and CONTACT PRECAUTIONS. The pyramid details some clinical examples in which gloves are not indicated, and others in which examination or sterile gloves are indicated. Hand hygiene should be performed when appropriate regardless of indications for glove use.

    Yes I agree with you that The pyramid lists clinical scenarios where sterile or examination gloves are recommended and others where they are not. Regardless matter when wearing gloves is advised, it is always advisable to practice good hand hygiene.
    Ensure your safety and the safety of those around you with high-quality latex examination gloves with the right use.
