Fibre-optic laryngoscopy procedures have the potential to produce aerosols associated with patient coughing, sneezing or talking, or the use of suction. 2 According to current guidance, all persons performing an aerosol-generating procedure must wear PPE, consisting of a filtering face piece code 3 (FFP3) mask, adequate eye protection, 3 gloves and a fluid-resistant gown. The device is composed of an anaesthetic 'closed' facemask, anaesthetic filter, DAR ™ (Covidien) connector (or similar), which is L-shaped with a closable hole for instruments (alternatively, a T-piece 22 mm connector can be used), and a reusable harness attachment for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) (Vygon, Swindon, UK) ( Figure 1 ). ./cache/cord-330359-c0l5xq5m.txt ./txt/cord-330359-c0l5xq5m.txt
