This department is offering a research grant to assess the utilization of elastomeric respirators in healthcare settings. The study will focus on factors impacting healthcare workers, such as comfort and tolerability, as well as their influence on work practices and economic considerations. The comparison between elastomeric devices and filtering facepiece respirators will be conducted to evaluate strengths and weaknesses, providing insights from usage, operational, and financial standpoints. Application deadline: Jun 30, 2014
