The gloved hand method requires that the glove be sterile at the
beggining of the skin scrub and that the surface of the patients
skin not be permitted to come into contact with the gloved hand
The sponges used in scrubbing are duscarded as they become
soiled and fresh one are taken
A soiled sponge is never brought back over a scrubbed surface
The lather is wiped off with dry, sterile sponges
Depending upon the surgeons preference, an antimicrobial
tincture, or paint may be carefully applied, avoiding any pooling
beneath pat
All wet draped should be removed from the patient area after the
skin scrub is complete
