12 Personal Protective Equipment Masks (patients and HCWs for large droplets) Respirators (HCWs)
13 Negative Pressure Respirator A respirator in which the air pressure inside the facepiece is negative during inhalation with respect to the ambient air pressure outside the respirator
14 Air-Purifying Respirator (APR) A respirator with an air-purifying filter, cartridge, or canister that removes specific air contaminants by passing ambient air through the air-purifying element
15 Filter A component used in respirators to remove solid or liquid aerosols from the inspired air. Also called air purifying element
16 High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) Filter Filter that is at least 99.97% efficient in removing particles of 0.3 micrometers in diameter Equivalent CDC-NIOSH 42 CFR 84 particulate filters are the N100, R100, and P100 filters
17 CDC-NIOSH Standards
18 Selection of N-, R-, and P- Series Filters If no oil particles are present in the work environment, use a filter of any series. If oil particles are present, use and R- or P- series filter Selection of filter efficiency depends on size of particulate and how much filter leakage is acceptable
19 N95 Respirators N95 disposable respirators are generally acceptable for most TB situations Higher level of protection may be prudent during high risk procedures Sputum induction Bronchoscopy Autopsy
20 CEN Standards Initial filter penetration (NaCl & paraffin oil) Total inward leakage Maximum breathing resistance Loading test
21 CEN Standards (Initial Filter Penetration) NaCl < 20% = P1 < 6% = P2 < 3% = P3 Paraffin Oil NA = P1 < 2% = P2 < 1% = P3
22 CEN EN 1822 Filter Filtration Class Efficiency (%) Penetration (%) H H H12 99,5 0,5 H13 99,95 0,05 H14 99,995 0,005 U15 99, ,000 5 U16 99, , U17 99, ,
23 CEN Standards Total inward leakage < 25% = FFP1 < 11% = FFP2 < 5% = FFP3
24 CEN Respirators FFP2 or FFP3 disposable respirators are generally acceptable for most TB situations Higher level of protection may be prudent during high risk procedures Sputum induction Bronchoscopy Autopsy

31 Why fit testing? Ensure that each person receives an adequate fit while wearing a respirator Determine appropriate make/model Determine appropriate size Ensure proper seal between respirator and wearer
32 Fit Testing Uses a challenge agent to evaluate the fit of a respirator on an individual
33 Fit Testing Employees should pass an appropriate qualitative fit test or quantitative fit test: prior to initial use whenever a different respirator facepiece (size, style, model or make) is used, and periodically thereafter Additional fit test whenever changes in physical condition or job description that could affect respirator fit are noticed or reported
34 Physical Factors Contributing to Poor Fitting Respirators Weight loss/gain Facial scarring Changes in dental configuration (dentures) Facial hair Cosmetic surgery Excessive makeup Mood of worker (smiling/frowning) Body movements
35 Sources of Facepiece Leakage Through air-purifying element Through exhalation valve Around facepiece/skin interface

42
43 Qualitative Fit Tests A pass/fail fit test to assess the adequacy of respirator fit that relies on the individual s response to the test agent
44 Qualitative Fit Tests Began with US Bureau of Mines respirator certification program Coal dust test Subject donned respirator Coal dust blown into face of subject Subject removed respirator Respirator failed if dust streaks were noticed
45 Coal Dust Test
46 Qualitative Fit Tests Two methods commonly recognized and accepted Saccharin Bitrex (Denatonium benzoate)
47 Saccharin and Bitrex Can be used for all particulate respirators (i.e., 95-, 99-, 100-series, FFP2, and FFP3) Uses subject s sense of taste aerosolized saccharin (>2μm) Requires the use of small test hood
48
49
50 Qualitative Fit Tests Advantages No expensive equipment Tests easy to conduct Disadvantages Rely on subject s subjective response May not be reliable
51 Quantitative Fit Tests An assessment of the adequacy of respirator fit by numerically measuring the amount of leakage into the respirator
52 Qualitative Fit Factor An estimated/assumed value used to assess the quality of respirator fit Fit Factor C FIT TEST SOLUTION C SENSITIVITY SOLUTION
53 TSI PortaCount Plus
54 Particle Counting Instrument Subject wears probed respirator at ambient conditions Aerosol generator (NaCl) can be used as supplement Counts particles inside and outside facepiece Care must be taken to ensure no particles generated by subject
55 Quantitative Fit Tests Advantages Does not rely on subject response More reliable Disadvantages Expensive equipment needed Requires trained personnel Requires probes/adapters (not CNP)
56 Fit-Test Comparison Results Method Alpha Error Beta Error Accuracy Goal <= 50% <=5% Bitrex 51% 11% Saccharin 56% 9% N95 Companion 57% 9% CDC/NIOSH 75% 4% Proposed Method 1 1 Not for general use

58 Achieving APF Cummulative Distribution of PFs With & Without Fit Testing Percentage of PFs < PF Shown 100% 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% Protection Factor, PF
59 Design versus Fit-Testing 100 Percentage of subjects achieving SWPFs < SWPF indicated Three poorest designed models with all subjects passing Bitrex Fit-Test Three best designed 3 models without Bitrex Fit-Test Simulated Workplace Protection Factor (SWPF)
60 Selection of Respirators Provide an appropriate respirator based on: Respiratory hazards to which the worker is exposed and Workplace and user factors that affect respirator performance and reliability Design to fit!
61 Selection of Respirators
62 Selection of Respirators
63
64 3M 1860 Use Instructions Before use for respiratory protection, a written respiratory protection program must be implemented... Respirator may be used until damaged, breathing becomes difficult, or contaminated with blood or body fluids Filtering facepieces are to be inspected prior to each use...
65 Reuse of Respirators The Russian experience Three-month study Fit tested all participants Unlimited supply of respirators HCWs recorded hourly and calendar time-of-use ~20% of HCWs failed the fit test with used respirator(s) 1 of 200+ respirators failed >95% and all passed >94% test
66 What Can You Do? Be proactive Research and select well-designed respirators Take care of your respirator Decontamination Cleaning Storage No! No! Clean & dry place! Take care when reusing respirator closely monitor service life Dispose of respirator if you question its performance
67 Summary Good-fitting respirators better than poor after fit-testing Most protection provided by: Well-designed respirators Performing fit-testing Comfort and usability issues critical! Reuse with caution
