Document: There are many practical considerations which must be taken into account when trying to apply a decontamination method to hospital-scale operations. Masks should ideally be returned to the same individual for many reasons, including fit and decreased risk of spreading other diseases. Avoiding any cross contamination between masks is also important. Hospitals with limited PPE allocations would also benefit from rapid time turnaround capabilities if there is a critical shortage of N95 FFRs, ideally decontaminating a clinician's mask between shifts.
