India Surgical Gloves Market, by Type (Latex, Neoprene, Polyisoprene and Nitrile), by Usage (Disposable Gloves and Reusable Gloves), and by End User (Hospitals, Clinics, Ambulatory Surgical Center and Others) - Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022 - 2030
Sterile surgical gloves are worn by surgeons and other healthcare professionals during surgical procedures. These surgical gloves act as a barrier to avoid contamination, infection, and entry of microorganisms and bacteria during surgical procedures. Nitrile is a synthetic rubber made of butadiene and acrylonitrile. It is an excellent material for developing surgical gloves because of its resistance to temperature changes, durability, and strength, especially for those with latex allergies. Various advantages offered by nitrile surgical gloves are expected to drive the segment growth over the forecast period. For instance, nitrile gloves are preferred by many surgeons due to their extreme durability and puncture resistance. Moreover, nitrile surgical gloves have a longer shelf life than latex and vinyl varieties. As nitrile gloves last longer, they can be stored more efficiently. During medical operations and examinations, personal protection equipment such as surgical gloves are used to shield the user and/or the patient from the transmission of infection or illness. To help minimize cross-contamination between caregivers and patients during medical examinations and procedures, medical gloves are disposable gloves. Exam gloves, surgical gloves, and medical gloves for handling chemotherapeutic drugs are some of the disposable options available (chemotherapy gloves). Medical professionals like doctors, surgeons, nurses, lab technicians, dentists, and dental assistants are the ones who use them the most.
