ABSTRACT:
A penetration-resistant surgical glove is disclosed which consists of a thin latex of synthetic rubber foundation glove having a front surface overlay of thin, pliable and limp material composed of a large number of tightly interlaced fibers or filaments of high strength adhesively attached to the face or palmar surface of the foundation glove. The surface overlay of thin, pliable and limp material is shaped to conform to the thumb, fingers and palm of the foundation glove and serves to prevent penetration of the glove by a sharp object. The foundation glove with its protective overlay of penetration-resistant material may be provided with an over-coat of rubber in the form of a second glove, as by dipping in liquid latex, drying and vulcanizing in the conventional manner.The over-coat of latex rubber provides a hermetic seal over the surface of the foundation glove and its protective overlay. Any rupture or penetration of the hermetic seal occurring during the course of an operation which enables fluids to reach the protective overlay causes a visible staining of the overlay material, thereby providing an indication that such a rupture or penetration has occurred.
