RESULT: The helmet provided adequate comfort, showed no evidence of staining on spill test and the filter passed the industry filtration efficiency standards. Reaming, lavage, and use of saw ( Figure 1 ) have all shown to produce aerosols that vary in size from 0.7 -5 microns [1, 3] Surgical helmet systems are routinely used by arthroplasty surgeons to reduce the peri-operative infection rates and were also used as personal protective equipment [2, 3, 4] . This paper describes the process of designing and applying 3D printing technology to enhance the functionality of the surgical helmet system for use during the pandemic period. The 3D printed mould for filter placement is an inexpensive, efficient, and comfortable design to augment the personal protection of the Stryker helmet system.	./cache/cord-290448-oeeg754b.txt	./txt/cord-290448-oeeg754b.txt
