Why put sterile gloves on the dominant hand first?

Putting sterile gloves on the dominant hand first helps reduce the risk of contamination. The dominant hand is typically more adept at handling the glove package and the glove itself, allowing for more precise and controlled placement. By starting with the dominant hand, the user can then use that hand to aid in putting on the glove for the non-dominant hand, minimizing the chance of touching non-sterile surfaces. This practice promotes a more effective and sterile technique.
