Aerosol emission from the respiratory tract: an analysis of relative risks from oxygen delivery systems
2021-02-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Risk of aerosolisation of SARS-CoV-2 directly informs organisation of acute healthcare and PPE guidance. Continuous positive airways pressure (CPAP) and high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) are widely used modes of oxygen delivery and respiratory support for patients with severe COVID-19, with both considered as high risk aerosol generating procedures. However, there are limited high quality experimen...
