Who Can Use the Closed Mesh Finger-Control Padded Mitts?

These mitts are designed to prevent the wearer from scratching themselves or interfering medical treatments by pulling at IV lines and catheters. They are particularly useful for:

• Psychiatric patients for whom limited movement would be beneficial for their own safety and others’
• Patients with a skin condition whose scratching exacerbates the condition
• Patients who have undergone recent hand surgery and need cushioned protection
• Patients considered to be at risk of pulling catheters and disrupting treatments
• Patients who have the urge to rip off bandages before they’re ready
• Patients whose scratching could cause self harm or worsen their wounds

How Comfortable Are These Mitts?

We want to protect patients for their own safety without compromising their comfort. That’s why the breathable mesh ensures the user doesn’t get sweaty hands while the padding under the palm and fingers provides a soft cushioning effect.

Protection for Patient and Clinician

The Closed Mesh Finger-Control Mitts can help to protect both the user from unintentionally injuring themselves and those who treat them. Whether you’re looking after psychiatric patients or those prone to pulling at their IV tubes during treatment, these gloves offer maximum security to ensure everyone remains safe.
