Abstract: Objective To explore the occurrence of glove perforation in orthognathic surgery in order to reduce its occurrence and prevent cross infection. Methods A total of 472 gloves used in 50 orthognathic surgeries were collected during Mar. 2018 and Sep. 2019 in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, of School and Hospital of Stomatology, Cheeloo College of Shandong University. The gloves were observed with naked eyes during and after surgery, and then were filled with water to observe the perforation rate, site, and occurrence rate in different types of orthognathic surgeries. Results Altogether 84 gloves perforated, 30.07% of which were worn by dominant surgeons. Perforation was most likely to occur in the left index finger, and in operations like sagittal split of mandible. Conclusion In orthognathic surgery, most glove perforations were detected by visual observation, which are likely to occur in the dominant surgeons left index finger and in operations such as sagittal split of mandible. In order to reduce cross infection, surgeons had better put on double-layer gloves for protection.
