CONCLUSIONS: Even if the participants passed the QNFT, the N95 respirator did not provide adequate protection against respiratory infections during chest compression. Thus, we compared the respirator failure (FF < 100) rates during chest compression between a partially passed group (the overall fit factor was adequate, but at least one specific exercise was failed; the PPG) and an all passed group (group that passed all exercises: the APG). Therefore, our findings are clinically significant in terms of the safety of HCWs who are at high risk for airborne disease transmission during chest compression even when wearing adequately fit-tested N95 respirators. This study indicated that N95 respirators may not provide consistent protection against respiratory infection for HCWs. The QNFT failure rates during chest compression after the user-seal-check did not differ between the two groups.	./cache/cord-268526-gh9sy7sl.txt	./txt/cord-268526-gh9sy7sl.txt
