This study was designed to determine the respiratory safety of improvised respirators based on modified full-face snorkel masks, making comparisons with a purpose-designed mask.This is prospective crossover conducted ten recruits. Volunteers wore masks mated an anaesthetic heat and moisture exchange filter. The system worn at rest then during exercise. Gases were sampled from mask 5-min intervals.The satisfactory in seven participants. For three carbon dioxide concentrations >1%. Two...
This study was designed to determine whether improvised respirators based on modified full-face snorkel masks are able pass a standard qualitative fit test.This is prospective crossover conducted in 16 staff. Fit-tests were mated (1) an anaesthetic breathing circuit heat and moisture exchange filter (2) CE-marked P3 grade filter. filters mounted using both epoxy-coated uncoated adaptors.None of the tests passed. Only one overall observed P3-rated mask.These data suggest that PPE designs...
Intensive care physicians are increasingly aware of the need to appropriately manage limited resources, so admission patients with haematological malignancy can be controversial because there is a perception poor prognosis regardless intervention. While this was true in 1980s – one study showed an in-hospital mortality 78% (Lloyd-Thomas et al, 1988), another intensive 90% for those requiring ventilation and renal replacement (Brunet 1990) survival rates improving.
