Adverse effects associated with the use of surgical gloves

India Surgical Gloves Market: Restraint

The major factors that hinder growth of the India surgical gloves market include adverse effects associated with the use of surgical gloves. Direct contact with natural latex rubber in latex gloves can cause dermatitis. Potential allergic reactions from the latex gloves may include hives, itching, stuffy or runny nose, scratchy throat, etc. The most serious allergic reaction to latex is anaphylaxis, which can be deadly. An anaphylactic reaction develops immediately after latex exposure in highly sensitive people, but it rarely happens the first time one is exposed. For instance, in December 2014, the U.S. FDA recommended to label the medical products mentioning if it is made from natural rubber latex. If patient is allergic to the natural rubber latex, healthcare professional or care giver should choose gloves made from other synthetic materials.
