McKesson Confiderm® 3.0 Medium Blue Exam Glove 250/Box
McKesson Confiderm 3.0 Nitrile Exam Gloves (Small Sizing)
ASTM D6978-05 Certified Permeation Defense Against Chemotherapy and Fentanyl Exposure with High-Yield 250-Count Space-Saving Boxes
McKesson Confiderm® 3.0 Nitrile Exam Gloves deliver an elite personal protective barrier engineered to combine specialized chemical defense with incredible tactile feedback. Across fast-paced clinical settings, emergency response scenes, and oncology units, standard examination gloves can feel rigid or bulky, which can impair precision and accelerate hand strain over a shift. This high-performance glove line overcomes those issues with a specialized thin-wall core that conforms naturally to the hand, ensuring complete touch sensitivity while fully protecting your workflow and clinical dignity.
Constructed 100% free from natural rubber latex proteins to protect against Type I allergies, the Confiderm 3.0 profile is validated under the strict ASTM D6978-05 standard. This certification ensures a dependable barrier tested against chemotherapy drug contact and hazardous Fentanyl exposure. The micro-textured fingertips provide a clean, steady grip on smooth glass and delicate tools, even in wet environments. Designed with a robust beaded cuff that stops roll-down and resists tearing at the wrist, these powder-free dark blue gloves are sized in Small. Packaged in a high-density configuration of 250 gloves per box (2,500 count per case), this series saves shelf storage space and limits disposal waste across busy facilities.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these Confiderm 3.0 gloves safe for direct use with harsh industrial solvents or mineral oils?
No. These gloves are clinical exam barriers designed for medical checkups, oncology tasks, and outpatient handling. They are not intended for continuous immersion in industrial petroleum products, harsh solvents, or mineral oils, where heavy-duty industrial safety sleeves are required.
How can healthcare personnel check the specific breakthrough times for particular chemotherapy agents?
Permeation times vary depending on the chemical mix. The certified list of evaluated agents and drug exposure details is printed on the bottom of the packaging box, and complete laboratory testing reports can be requested by calling McKesson Support directly at 1-800-777-4908.
What is the best way to don these thin nitrile gloves to prevent accidental punctures?
Ensure your hands are fully dry before sliding them on. Pull the glove up gently from the thick beaded wrist cuff rather than stretching the thin finger sections, and avoid contact with long fingernails or sharp jewelry pieces like stone rings that can slice the material.
