VIVIT Supply masks have not been tested for safe use around MRI machines and therefore, we do not recommend our masks be used in this area.
The American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) is an international standards organization that develops the technical standards for a range of materials, products, systems, and services. The ASTM F2100 guidelines pertain specifically to the performance of medical face masks and are generally accepted as the industry standard in North America.
The metal nosepiece is placed at the top of the mask. The colored side will face outwards or away from the skin, with pleats falling downwards. Once the mask is on, both the nose and mouth should be completely covered, with the bottom edge of the mask pulled beneath the chin. Form the nosepiece along the nose and cheekbones to ensure a secure fit.
There is no definitive timeline for how long masks can be worn. There are various factors that impact a mask's efficacy such as humidity levels, respiration rate, nasal discharge, etc. As a general rule, a new mask should be worn for each patient procedure or visit. Masks also need to be replaced once soiled or wet and should not be removed then re-donned. A mask's filtration efficiency and protective abilities become compromised if the mask is soiled, wet, torn or dislodged. If the mask begins to feel overly humid and/or the user finds it difficult to breathe through, the mask should be replaced.
