Wearing gloves is important when performing any type of vascular ultrasound exams. Yesterday evening, I had some sort of blister on my left index finger and it was irritating me. I figured it was a bug bite or something along those lines, I put some corticoid cream which helped relieve the irritation and within an hour it had disappeared.  
I found this interesting article that I wanted to share on why we should wear gloves ALL the time. Wearing gloves is a must when coming in any kind of contact with patients. As vascular sonographers we must be aware of this..

    I want to reach out to all students and any individual who is interested in the vascular ultrasound field.  Contributing my opinion and experience as a student I can bring awareness so existing or perspective students can benefit from what I have learned. Having the opportunity to voice my experience as a student may help improve challenges that many students go through while becoming a vascular sonographer. Becoming an expert in my field is my passion.
