Coronavirus Disease 2019: Epidemiological Factors During Aerosol-Generating Medical Procedures 2020-06-16 .txt text/plain 1087 66 42 3 During AGMPs, PPE (including N95 respirators, powered air purifying respirators [PAPRs], face shields, gowns, and gloves) remains the major environment-host IF protecting HCWs. For AGMPs, such as intubation, video laryngoscopy provides slightly more distance between the infected patient and the HCW when compared to direct laryngoscopy, but the HCW still remains at high exposure risk. In fact, the Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation (APSF) and the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) recommend decontamination of the OR after care of COVID patients and "entry should be delayed until sufficient time has elapsed for enough air changes to remove aerosolized infectious particles." 3 Safety practices used by other occupations exposed to hazardous particulates provide a great resource for alternative agent-environment IFs for HCWs performing AGMPs. Local exhaust ventilation hoods near the contamination source provide effective control of dust and fumes generated in industries utilizing woodworking and soldering. ./cache/cord-282026-839jc5wp.txt ./txt/cord-282026-839jc5wp.txt
