FIELD: medical engineering, particularly, manufacture of means of individual protection. SUBSTANCE: this protective glove is designed for safeguarding physician's hands. It includes dorsal and palmer portions and has three layers. Middle layer is made up of air-volume material based on either natural or synthetic fibers or combination of natural and synthetic fibers. Inner layer is cotton fabric and outer layer is polymer film. Method for manufacture of disclosed glove includes such steps as taking measurements to obtain anthropometric data, cutting material into components of both dorsal and palmer portions of glove integrally with finger cot and interfinger spacer and fitting all components together to make finished product. Disclosed method prescribes making this protective glove so that it has three layers and inner layer be made of cotton. Ultrasonic protection is allowed by middle layer to be made of either natural or synthetic materials or combination of natural and synthetic fibers. This method further dictates that outer layer be made of polymer film. EFFECT: more sophisticated design. 6 cl, 2 dwg, 1 tbl
