这个问题很细致,其实美国CDC2007年ISOLATION指南已经对个人PPE,Personal protective equipment (PPE) ...
看了楚管的帖子后的确感到帽子是否作为PPE存在疑问,不过幸好在早年积攒的香港的《傳染控制守則》中找到了帽子作为PPE的一点证据。
在香港《傳染控制守則》中的《Infection Control Measures in Isolation Wards NTWC》中关于PPE有如下一段推荐:
Personnel Protective Equipment (PPE):
It is advisable for healthcare personnel to have working uniform / shoes.
The PPE used in the isolation ward can be further categorized according to the risk of exposure.
No direct patient contact
· Surgical mask
· A linen or disposable gown
· (Optional) Eye shield/Full-face shield, Disposable cap
Direct patient contact or activities with risk of exposure to blood, body fluids, secretions, excreta and contaminated items
· N95/surgical mask
· A linen or disposable gown
· Full-face shield or eye shield
· Latex gloves (only for procedures with exposure to blood and body fluid, secretion, excreta, and contaminated items)
· (Optional) Disposable cap, Goggles
Procedures with high risk of generating aerosols (e.g. resuscitation, high flow oxygen) and requiring prolonged very close contact with affected patients
· N95 respirator
· A linen gown if no uniform / working clothes
· Disposable gown
· Latex gloves
· Full-face shield
· Goggles
· (Optional) Disposable cap
从中可以看出CAP是作为PPE出现的。
当然其中涉及CAP的三条中都出现了Optional这个词,也就是说,CAP不是强制要求,医务人员可以任意选择,可以戴,也可以不戴。而且随着感染风险的增高,Eye shield/Full-face shield、Goggles都逐渐成为了必选,唯独CAP一直是Optional。
看来CAP作为PPE是否有效的确存疑。 |
