Abstract
- The selection of a respiratory filtering facepiece (FFP) mask is often questioned in hospital infection control. In some situations, healthcare workers (HCWs) can be exposed with a risk of nosocomial ultra-resistant tuberculosis despite FFP-mask [[4]]. If the HCW detects the substance, the FFP-mask is not waterproof and must be readjusted. [Extracted from the article]
