Correct wearing of medical surgical mask

Medical surgical masks (that is, common blue flat disposable masks) look at the front and back, how to divide the front and back of medical masks? It's very simple. The mask's dark color is the front, and the front should face outward. Besides, the medical mask also has a nose clip metal strip. The one facing the face should be the reverse side of the medical mask, that is, the lighter side. In addition, the part with metal strip should be on the top of the mask instead of wearing it backwards.

After distinguishing the positive and negative sides, upper and lower ends of the medical mask, wash your hands first, and check whether the medical mask package is intact, whether there is damage, appearance contamination, etc.

1. Stick the medical mask horizontally on the face, mouth and nose, and hang the rope at both ends on the ears with both hands.

2. At the same time, both hands will open the folds of the medical mask up and down, so that the mask can completely cover the mouth, nose and chin.

3. Press the metal strips on both sides of the bridge of the nose with the index fingers of both hands to make the upper end of the medical mask close to the bridge of the nose.

Precautions for use of medical masks

1. Pay attention to the expiration date of medical masks. The period of validity of general medical surgical masks is three years, and that of medical protective masks is five years. Once the period of validity is exceeded, the filtration efficiency and protective performance of the filter material will be reduced, and the use of expired medical masks can not effectively block the infection of virus and bacteria. Before using a medical mask, be sure to confirm the production date and expiration date.

2. Wash hands before and after wearing medical masks. Before wearing the mask, you must wash your hands to avoid touching the inner surface of the mask, and try to avoid touching the mask during use, so as not to reduce the protective effect. When taking off the mask, try not to touch the outside of the mask, so as to avoid bacteria getting on the hands, and wash hands after taking off.

3. Masks should not be worn for a long time. In order to prevent infection, some people may wear medical masks all day long, but this will make the nasal mucosa become fragile, lose the original physiological function of the nasal cavity, and reduce the resistance. Therefore, it is not necessary to wear masks in places with low population density and ventilation.

4. Medical masks should be folded and stored in self sealing bags when not in use. It is not recommended to take off the mask and put it directly into the pocket or bag, which is easy to cause secondary pollution of the medical mask. Be sure to fold it and put it into a clean self sealing bag, and fold the side that contacts the mouth and nose inward.

Disposal of discarded masks

1. Ordinary citizens (no fever, cough and other symptoms) were put into the "harmful garbage" bin after being destroyed.

2. People with fever or cough can soak in boiling water (or at least 56 degrees above hot water) for 30 minutes or after spraying with alcohol spray and then dispose of them into the "harmful trash" bucket. Taizhou Taiyu Medical Products Co., Ltd. welcome major manufacturers to negotiate
