SensiCare with Aloe Vera is a powder-free, latex-free glove that contains pure, freeze-dried aloe vera. Healthcare providers must constantly wash their hands and wear gloves as an infection control measure. Repeated glove use and exposure to harsh chemicals can lead to contact dermatitis. In 1999, Medline changed the industry by patenting a process to bring the moisturizing properties of aloe vera to medical gloves. Medline’s SensiCare surgical gloves are made from Isolex, a proprietary synthetic polyisoprene. This material has a molecular structure virtually identical to natural rubber latex but without the harmful latex proteins. As a result, SensiCare surgical gloves are softer, more elastic, and more comfortable than latex to satisfy clinical needs and support safety initiatives.
