The purpose of this presentation is to demonstrate step-by-step the closed cuff method of gowning and gloving. According to the program, this method is preferred as a safer method since the danger of the glove cuffs rolling onto the contaminated skin surfaces is eliminated. After the surgical scrub is completed, the nurse enters the operating room and approaches the table on which the sterile gown has been placed. She dries her hands using two sterile towels and puts on the sterile gown being careful to touch only the inside of the gown. She does not extend her hands through the cuffs of the sleeves. The packaging of the gloves is described. The nurse opens the inner sterile wrapper and picks up the right glove by the cuff using her covered left hand. Placing the glove palm down on her sleeve covered right hand with the fingers pointing toward her and the cuff edge at the seam of the sleeve cuff, she pulls the upper glove cuff edge over the open gown cuff and extends her fingers into the glove at the same time. By grasping both the gown and glove she pulls the glove onto her hand. The left glove is put on in the same fashion. The gowning and gloving is demonstrated a second time without explanation for emphasis. The removal of the gown and gloves is also demonstrated with emphasis on avoiding personal contamination.
