How It Works:
Introduction to the ASM-301 Level 3 Surgical Mask
The ASM-301 Level 3 Surgical Mask is a critical gear for healthcare professionals, designed to provide optimal protection in a variety of clinical settings.
Design and Functionality
The flexible design of the ASM-301 mask enables the mask to conform securely to the shape of the face, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. The
Three Layer Filtration System offers superior bacterial and particle filtration efficiency.
The outer layer of the mask is fluid-resistant and decreases the transmission of infectious agents from splashes, sprays, and spatter of body fluids. The middle layer provides a
high level of Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) and Particulate Filtration Efficiency (PFE). The innermost layer of the mask serves as a moisture-absorbent, providing comfort during prolonged wear.
Standards and Specifications
The ASM-301 Level 3 Surgical Mask meets the ASTM Level 3 standard, indicating maximum barrier protection which is suitable for high-risk exposure situations. Its primary performance metrics include a Bacterial Filtration Efficiency (BFE) of ?98%, a Differential Pressure of <5.0 mm H2O/cm², and a sub-micron particulate filtration efficiency at 0.1 ?m of ?98%.
Applications
Also referred to as a surgical procedure mask, the ASM-301 can be used in environments such as Operating Rooms, Intensive Care Units, Emergency Rooms or any other area where the risk of infection is high. Although categorized under 'Gloves', the ASM-301 is primarily
face protection, and works best in conjunction with other Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), which provides a comprehensive safety gear to prevent the transmission of infectious disease.
Conclusion
With current global health trends underscoring the significance of infection prevention, the ASM-301 Level 3 Surgical Mask provides healthcare professionals with a reliable, comfortable, and high-performance solution. Through its effective design and stringent adherence to safety standards, this mask delivers the necessary protection enabling healthcare professionals to focus on providing high-quality patient care.
