---|---|---|
Gloves (35) | Prefer to swab without long gloves [9] | “I cut off the hands of the gloves as it was time consuming and difficult to use with the gloves” |
Wrong size [7] | “supplied gloves too small. Not used as a result.” | |
Not touch-sensitive enough [6] | “glooves [sic] thick and lac [sic] ‘feel’”, “hand gloves are too stiff” | |
Generally hard to use [6] | “The full length rubber glove that came with booth hard to use” | |
Tear easily [5] | “Some difficulty applying gloves onto the booth - the gloves tear easily” | |
Hard to insert/remove hands [4] | “the gloves are too rigid, VERY hard to even get my hands in, granted that I have big hands, size 8 | |
Slippery [3] | “The gloves are slippery and makes handling poor.” | |
Hard to change gloves [1] | “Gloves that can be easily fitted and changed” | |
Accommodating different-sized users [20] | Height & restrictiveness of glove port [16] | “Booth is not user friendly as there is a restriction in terms of height due to the fixed location of the hand glove position. it restricts the height of both the swabber and patients” |
Could not swab sitting/wheelchair patients [6] | “it is not wheelchair or elderly friendly.” | |

Miscellaneous [19] | Want it more enclosed [6] | “There is no “door” to total close patient in so to ensure the aerosol particles are contain within the booth…” |
Enhance places to put things [5] | “Put a ledge on patients’ side so the things less likely to drop” “compartments to put disinfectants and swabbing materal [sic]” | |
