Reducing Healthcare Costs and Positively Influencing Hand-Hygiene Behavior through Technology
Attempting to don gloves with damp hands is extremely challenging and may result in one or more of: tearing of gloves, wasted time on the part of the user as they try to force-fit the glove (assuming it can be donned), imprecise areas of fit across the hand, and overall circumvention of proper hand-hygiene techniques.
The Rapid-Don technology addresses all these issues and provides enhanced slip properties to the inner surface of the glove. This proprietary technology has been independently tested via a Perception Study that finds that Rapid-Don gloves outperform control samples on every measure tested for, which includes: actual time of donning, perception of speed to don, perception of easy to don and perception of resistance to don.
