Non-sterile single-use gloves seem to be a barrier to hand disinfection. Solutions must be found in order to improve peri-glove compliance, in particular with regard to hand disinfection before and during the wearing of gloves. Alongside the mere transfer of knowledge, the use of non-sterile gloves with regard to the current structural conditions in everyday clinical practice should be critically scrutinised, questioned, tested and developed for the users through precise instructions.
