| 2014-05611 | Respiratory Protective Devices Used in Healthcare | Notice | Respiratory protective devices (RPDs) that are approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and also cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) \a\ as medical devices are widely used in surgical and non-surgical healthcare environments. There are reports \b\ that other NIOSH-approved RPDs that are not FDA-cleared medical devices are also being used to protect healthcare workers from inhalation hazards. The desirability of NIOSH incorporating additional requirements and tests in its 42 CFR Part 84 respirator approval process to parallel the protections in the FDA clearance process for Surgical N95 Respirators in surgical and non- surgical healthcare environments has been mentioned during broad-based and cross-agency discussions for future pandemic events as well as day- to-day use in healthcare settings. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | 2014-03-14 | 2014 | 3 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/03/14/2014-05611/respiratory-protective-devices-used-in-healthcare | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-03-14/pdf/2014-05611.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Centers for Disease Control and Prevention | 221,44 | Respiratory protective devices (RPDs) that are approved by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and also cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) \a\ as medical devices are widely used in surgical and non-surgical... |
