Abstract

Background and Objectives: A large percentage of all work-related illnesses are observed in the form of occupational skin diseases (OSD). In sensitized people latex glove allergies may cause contact dermatitis, which results in inflammatory epiderm, redness, itching and burning. In acute stages, in addition to pruritus, erythema, vesicules and edema are seen among the patients. This study presents the effects of contact IRRITANTS and tissue reactions according to sex, age, record of service, previous skin diseases, number of hand-scrubs, various surgical gloves, antimicrobial agents and subject of wetness.Materials and Methods: This study was done on 80 persons associated with surgical procedures i.e. doctors and nurses of Tabriz Teaching hospitals, who were selected randomly with average age of 20-69 years. Thus, the study included forty percent males and 60% females. They were asked for any case of coincidence by the way of questionnaire and a check list of 32 questions was given, which all of them replied.Results: Analysis of the results revealed that contact dermatitis is mainly related to latex gloves (94.9%), antimicrobial agents (35.3%) and the number of surgical scrubs and powdered gloves (25.5%). It seems that by giving some useful recommendations the hazards can be reduced significantly among related SURGICAL TEAMs.Conclusion: Considering wide range of related studies and findings, the hospital nursing administration should form a Latex committee for promoting awareness of natural rubber and usage of synthetic "Vinyl gloves" is suggested. Use of antimicrobial agents with standard concentration, usage of vinyl gloves and also drying hands with two towels are recommended for the prevention of potential hazards of allergy.
