约旦卫生护理工作者自诉对乳胶手套过敏

The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of natural rubber latex allergy and its associated factors among health care workers in Jordan based on a self-administered questionnaire. In this cross-sectional study, the data were obtained through a self-reported hand-delivered questionnaire that was distributed to 500 health care workers who use natural rubber latex gloves. A total of 420 (84% ) health care workers responded by filling the questionnaire. Of the total number of 420 health care workers who filled the questionnaire, 57 (13.6% ) reported allergy to latex gloves. The prevalence of allergy to latex gloves was significantly higher for those who had allergy to some foodstuffs (especially avocado, kiwifruits and chestnuts) or with history of eczema and hay fever. However, allergy to latex gloves was independent of gender, age, job, family history, type of gloves, hours of use/day and number of years of use. It is concluded that a high rate of allergy to latex gloves was reported among health care workers in Jordan.

一次性天然胶乳手套的过敏性问题及解决措施

介绍一次性天然胶乳手套引起人体过敏的原因及解决措施。天然胶乳手套的过敏源是残留的可溶性蛋白质和化学药品(加工时加入)。解决措施有:采用酶分解蛋白质和离心洗涤法降低天然胶乳蛋白质含量;通过改进沥滤工艺、增加热水洗涤次数、使蛋白质变性来降低成型手套的可溶性蛋白质含量;用聚氨酯胶乳、丁腈胶乳、氯丁胶乳、PVC和PP等合成高分子材料手套作替代品,其中合成胶乳手套最有前途。
