N95 Masks, half face respirators, full-face respirators, KN95 masks

A mask like device used as a facial covering that is worn over the nose and mouth to prevent the inhalation of contaminated airborne substances.

When a student for a school program (i.e., medical, clinical related, industrial), or a worker (medical, dental, construction, manufacturing), for their profession must wear a mask or respirator. This mask must be professionally fitted respirator mask. The face fit mask test determines the right size respirator size for their face.

There are two types of mask fit testing, a Qualitative Fit Test (QFLT) and Quantitative Fit Test (QFNT). A QFLT is a subjective test that uses of a tasting solution. A QNFT involves the use of a computer readout. Both are effective tests when requiring a mask fitting test. A Qualitative Fit Test certification is quite common and cost-effective for many professionals in school programs, long-term care, hospitals, dental offices, construction, and manufacturing.

An N95 respirator or N95 mask is a mask or repository protective device designed to achieve a very close facial fit with very high filtration of airborne particulates. The N95 brand designation means that the wearer must undergo a mask fit test certification process. This respirator blocks as least 95% of these very small airborne particulates. To be more precise, N95 masks filter out 95% of airborne particulate from .3 microns to .5 microns in size.

There is a growing need for mask respiratory protection in many industries. It’s not just about protecting people from COVID, it’s about keeping people safe for noxious or dangerous airborne particles that could impact their breathing and health!

Our clients include college and university students, who are taking nursing, person support workers (PSW), pharmacy, physiotherapists, medical research, industrial programs, to professions in the medical field, such as nurses, pharmacracies, physiotherapists, maintenance workers, painters, welders, construction, engineers, plant workers, dental professionals, personal support workers (PSW) and more…

If an N95 mask/ ½ face mask or full-face mask is introduced in the workplace or required for a school program, the wearer MUST meet the OHSA regulations CAN/CSA Z94.4-18 standard. They MUST be fit tested.

(NIOSH) conducts research and makes recommendations for the prevention of work-related injury and illness. NIOSH publishes masks and respirators that have passed their stringent requirements.

WHAT IS COVERED WITH YOUR CERTIFICATION

  • What is an Ottawa First Aid CPR Test?

    The Ottawa First Aid CPR Test is a Qualitative Fit Test (QFT) designed to ensure individuals are properly fitted for a respirator mask, specifically N95 or full-face respirators. The test checks if the respirator provides a tight seal around the face, ensuring protection from harmful airborne particles. This is essential in high-risk environments such as healthcare, construction, or laboratories.

    Who Requires an Ottawa First Aid CPR Test and Why?

    Who Needs the Test?

    🔹 Employers: Organizations that require employees to use respirators for safety must ensure proper fit. Applicable industries include healthcare, dental, construction, manufacturing, and more.
    🔹 Individuals: Anyone needing personal certification to comply with workplace or educational respirator requirements can participate.

    Why is it Necessary?

    ⚖️ Compliance with OHSA Regulations: Employers must ensure proper protection for workers exposed to airborne contaminants. The Qualitative Fit Test (QFT) ensures the respirator offers the necessary protection.
    🔒 Safety: Confirms that the respirator provides a proper seal, minimizing exposure to harmful substances.

    Introduction to N95 Masks and Respirators

    🔹 N95 Masks: These respirators are designed to achieve a close facial fit and efficiently filter airborne particles. The N95 designation means the mask blocks at least 95% of particles that are 0.3 microns or larger.
    🔹 Half-Face and Full-Face Respirators: Cover the nose and mouth (half-face) or the entire face (full-face) to provide additional protection, including against gases and vapors.

    How to Perform a Mask Inspection

    1. Check Manufacturer’s Instructions:
      ✅ Ensure the mask is certified by a recognized authority like NIOSH.
    2. Examine Seals:
      🔍 Look for visible defects such as tears, holes, or any damage affecting the fit.
    3. Check Straps and Nosepiece:
      ✅ Ensure straps are intact, adjustable, and undamaged. Check that the nosepiece is flexible and provides a secure fit.

    How to Don and Doff a Mask

    Donning (Putting on the Mask):

    1. 🧴 Wash hands thoroughly before handling the mask.
    2. 👃 Place the mask over the nose and mouth, ensuring the nosepiece is positioned on the bridge of your nose.
    3. 🔧 Adjust the straps behind your head or ears to ensure a snug fit.
    4. ✔️ Perform a seal check to ensure no air escapes.

    Doffing (Removing the Mask):

    1. 🧴 Wash hands before removing the mask.
    2. ✋ Remove the mask by touching only the straps, not the front of the mask.
    3. 🗑️ Dispose of the mask properly (if disposable) or clean according to manufacturer instructions (if reusable).

    Performing the Ottawa First Aid CPR “Physical” Test

    🔍 Physical Test:
    The Ottawa First Aid CPR “physical” test involves testing the mask fit while performing activities simulating real-life conditions.

    The Sensitivity Taste Test:

    🥄 A harmless, non-toxic substance (like saccharin or Bitrex) is introduced to check if the respirator is properly sealed. The participant will perform physical activities, such as turning their head or bending over. If the substance is detected, it indicates the fit is not secure, and the mask may need adjustment or replacement.

    The Ottawa First Aid CPR Test Process

    1. Pre-Test Preparation:
      🔪 Ensure participants are clean-shaven, with no facial hair that could interfere with the mask’s seal.
    2. Seal Check:
      🔍 Conduct a physical test to verify that the mask provides a proper seal.
    3. Fit Test:
      ✅ Perform the qualitative test to assess the respirator’s effectiveness.

    How to Perform Your Air Seal Check

    1. Air Seal Check:
      💨 After donning the mask, cover the filter with your hands and gently exhale. If you feel air escaping, adjust the mask or straps until a tight seal is achieved.
    2. Comfort Check:
      🛋️ Ensure the mask is comfortable with no pressure points or discomfort. A poorly fitted mask can cause issues with prolonged use.

    Caring for Your Respirator

    1. Regular Inspections:
      🔍 Frequently check for damage such as cracks, tears, or worn-out straps.
    2. Proper Storage:
      🏠 Store your respirator in a clean, dry place when not in use. Avoid storing it in places where it might become contaminated.
    3. Cleaning:
      🧼 If reusable, follow the manufacturer’s cleaning and sanitizing instructions.

    The Use and Maintenance of a Respirator

    1. When to Replace:
      🔄 Disposable respirators should be replaced if damaged, contaminated, or after a designated period of use.
      🔄 Reusable respirators should be replaced based on wear and tear.
    2. Maintenance:
      🔧 Regularly clean and replace filters as needed to ensure optimal performance.

With a successful ottawa first aid CPR test (proper seal), you will be presented a 2-years ottawa first aid CPR (OHSA approved) certification card. There will also be time for us to answer questions and concerns.

Acceptable Facial Surfaces for Ottawa First Aid CPR Testing:

  • ✅ Smooth, clean-shaven faces:

    • Men must be clean-shaven in the areas where the respirator seals against the face, typically around the chin, cheeks, and upper lip. This ensures the mask fits properly and offers the necessary protection.

  • ✅ No facial hair in the seal area:

    • Any hair that could interfere with the respirator’s seal will prevent an accurate test. This includes beards, mustaches, and sideburns.

❌ Non-Acceptable Facial Surfaces for Ottawa First Aid CPR Testing:

  • ❌ Facial hair in the seal area:
    • Beards, thick mustaches, or stubble can prevent the respirator from forming a complete seal on the face.
  • ❌ Unshaven areas in critical regions:
    • If there’s any hair around the nose, chin, or jawline that interferes with the mask’s ability to form a proper seal, participants will not be able to pass the fit test.
