A systematic risk-based strategy to select personal protective equipment for infectious diseases

Personal protective equipment (PPE) is a primary strategy to protect health care personnel (HCP) from infectious diseases. When transmission-based PPE ensembles are not appropriate, HCP must recognize the transmission pathway of the disease and anticipate the exposures to select PPE. Because guidance for this process is extremely limited, we proposed a systematic, risk-based approach to the selection and evaluation of PPE ensembles to protect HCP against infectious diseases.

Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) has become a pandemic around the world. With the explosive growth of confirmed cases, emergency medical supplies are facing global shortage, which restricts the treatment of seriously ill patients and protection of medical staff. Taking China, the United States, Australia, and Canada as examples, this study compares and analyzes the reserve and supply systems of emergency medical supplies and problems exposed in response to the COVID-19 epidemic.

In this webinar, participants will discuss the principles of the Hospital Incident Command System (HICS) and other innovative approaches to assist with making informed decisions related to COVID-19 preparedness, mitigation, and response. Participants will also learn how to articulate creative ways to manage reusable and disposable supplies and how to approach the need for substitution during the pandemic crisis. The vetting processes for supplies received, including managing donations while maintaining safety and infection control measures, will also be discussed.<br /><br />Webinar slides attached.<br />

The Covid-19 pandemic has forced health care providers to dramatically increase their use of swabs, protective gear, ventilators, and other medical devices. This rapid increase in demand, coupled with the destabilizing effect of the crisis on society and the global economy, has disrupted normal sources of supply and led to critical shortages.

The Covid-19 pandemic has led to severe shortages of many essential goods and services, from hand sanitizers and N-95 masks to ICU beds and ventilators. Although rationing is not unprecedented, never before has the American public been faced with the prospect of having to ration medical goods and services on this scale.
