Title: Alternative Qualitative Fit Testing Method for N95 Equivalent Respirators in the Setting of Resource Scarcity at the George Washington University Document date: 2020_4_11
ID: 3khv6yrc_4
Snippet: Our group at the George Washington University and Hospital determined that there was a need for a qualitative test substitute to continue to rapidly prototype, iterate, and test N95 respirators to compensate for the shortage of PPE. We developed a protocol to mirror OSHA qualitative testing processes and detail it in this report. Our method should be not be used without confirmation in a formal OSHA approved qualitative or quantitative fit test, .....
Document: Our group at the George Washington University and Hospital determined that there was a need for a qualitative test substitute to continue to rapidly prototype, iterate, and test N95 respirators to compensate for the shortage of PPE. We developed a protocol to mirror OSHA qualitative testing processes and detail it in this report. Our method should be not be used without confirmation in a formal OSHA approved qualitative or quantitative fit test, the method but can be used to preserve those resources until developers are confident that potential new N95 comparable respirators will pass.
