Yes, Elastyfree are safe for use with children suffering from Spina bifida. These children have a higher risk of developing latex allergy, as a result of having a higher exposure to latex in the form of medical devices such as surgical gloves. Since Elastyfree gloves DO NOT CONTAIN latex, they can be used safely, in preference to latex-containing surgical gloves, when treating children with Spina bifida.
