Article Synopsis
- The study investigates aerosol production during rigid nasal endoscopy (RNE) and RNE with debridement (RNED), comparing it to intubation, which is considered a gold standard for aerosol-generating procedures.
- Aerosol detectors were used in a clinical setting involving 234 patients, revealing that RNE and RNED produced significant aerosol particles, similar to those produced during intubation.
- No significant differences in aerosol production were found between these procedures, highlighting a need for better definitions and understanding of aerosol-generating activities in healthcare environments.
The 2020 coronavirus pandemic and the following quarantine measures have led to significant changes in daily life worldwide. Preliminary research indicates that air quality has improved in many urban areas as a result of these measures. This study takes a neighborhood-scale approach to quantifying this change in pollution.
