Xitao Zhang, Yige Liu, Rui Zhang

Abstract


This paper aims to study the protective effect of finger cuff in vaginal palpation. First, the introduction section introduces the definition, application of vaginal tactile examination and its problems, including patient discomfort and difficulty for medical staff to obtain sufficient information. Secondly, the risk of vaginal infection and cross-infection is described. In the definition, use and protection of the cuff, the materials, characteristics, use methods and techniques, and the protective effect of the cuff in vaginal inspection are discussed in detail. Next, an experimental study was conducted comparing the risk of infection and patient comfort in cases with and without a finger cuff. The experimental results show that the use of finger sleeves can effectively reduce the risk of infection and improve patient comfort. Finally, the conclusions section summarizes the study findings and suggests widespread application of finger sets to protect patient health and reduce the risk of infection. This study has important guidance for improving the safety and effect of vaginal tactile test.
