High-risk gloves are designed for situations where there is a significant risk of exposure to bloodborne pathogens or hazardous chemicals. These gloves are typically thicker and more robust than standard medical gloves, providing an additional layer of protection. High-risk gloves are essential in emergency rooms, operating rooms, and laboratories where the potential for contamination is high. Their reinforced construction ensures that healthcare workers are protected during high-stakes procedures.

Proper glove usage also involves understanding when and how to change gloves. In medical settings, gloves must be changed between patients and procedures to prevent cross-contamination. Healthcare workers are trained to follow strict protocols for donning and doffing gloves, including proper hand hygiene practices before and after glove use. This minimizes the risk of transferring pathogens from one surface to another.
