Abstract: |
An improved surgical glove is provided that contains a smooth latex skin coated onto the front surface of the glove so that surgical tape will not stick thereto. A textured contoured flap is pivotly secured to tips of the finger portions of the glove while another textured contoured flap is pivotly secured to tip of the thumb portion of the glove so that when the flaps are flipped over to cover completely the latex skin, the hand of a person wearing the glove can increase its grip to hold various items.
