Hi,

Has anyone done any work on the following scenario? Lets say an outer dressing has been taken down using non sterile gloves to expose the primary dressing. Once a sterile field is in place and sterile gloves applied, is their any guidance out there that one hand should be desingated dirty and one clean? The Marsden does not state this, which I have pointed out, but I have a district nurse leader who thinks there is evidence that risk is further reduced by doing this in the way that was taught years ago. My advice would be not to advocate this but does anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks in anticipation.
