Original Note:
Warming patients hands has several benefits beyond the emotional suppor they say, including increased blood flow. Cold hands can result in incorrect readings of patients' blood oxygen levels, falsely showing that oxygen levels are low. The gloves ensure that doesn't happen. https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/hands-love-warm-latex-gloves-mimic-human-touch-covid-19-patients-brazil-2021-04-20/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10847619/
