Ansell Healthcare announces its newest innovation to reduce skin irritation and improve skin condition; the Derma Prene® IsoTouch® HydraSoft® synthetic polyisoprene, powder-free surgical glove is designed as a moisturizing glove that is designed to prevent Type I latex allergic reactions and restores and improves hands.
Â
This glove combines proprietary skin-moisturizing technology with the most advanced latex-free synthetic material to restore hand condition without risk of Type I allergic reactions. It is ideal for delicate procedures in ophthalmic, micro, and cardiovascular surgery without the risks associated with natural rubber latex sensitization. The Derma Prene® IsoTouch® HydraSoft® can also serve as an underglove, as its micro-thickness allows for comfortable double-gloving. It offers exceptional dexterity, tactile sensitivity and at the same time, outstanding strength and barrier protection.
