ABSTRACT:
A manipulating protective glove structure for use with non-conductive, hazardous materials, or materials sensitive to contamination, in a sealed environment, e.g., glove box. The glove structure embodies components which provide monitoring and signaling to the user, of a breach, in the glove structure. The outer surface of the manipulating glove itself is made electrically conductive by conductivity treatment of by inserting the glove into a thin conductive glove member which is sized to tightly cover the outer surface of the manipulating glove. An isolated electrical wire is electrically mounted to a the conductive outer surface with prevention of ingreee of air (with possible contamination). An electrical monitoring device is electrically connected to the user's skin and to the outer conductive layer via the electrical wire. The user's perspiration or a moisturizer cream used on the user's skin completes an electrical circuit between the user and the outer conductive layer with a breach in the manipulating glove. In an alternative embodiment, a second consuctive glove is positioned on the interior surface of the manipulating glove and electrical connection is between the inner and outer layers without electrical connection to either the user or object (or patient in a surgical procedure).
