OBJECTIVE
This study evaluated health care workers' (HCWs') knowledge and confidence in using elastomeric half-mask respirator (EHMR) attributes known to influence usage.
METHODS
Health care workers were surveyed regarding their EHMR donning and doffing experience. Respondents were categorized into competency categories based on their scores. Category differences were analyzed using χ 2 and multiple logistic regression.
RESULTS
Seventy-two percent showed high levels of EHMR donning and doffing knowledge and confidence (mastery); however, 21% had greater confidence than knowledge (misinformed). Respiratory therapists had greater odds of mastery than other HCWs ( P < 0.05), whereas those working in medical/surgical and pediatric units had greater odds of doubt than other HCWs ( P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS
Although most HCWs show high knowledge and confidence with EHMR use, strategies to confirm respirator use competency may ensure greater HCWs protection.
目的
本研究评估了卫生保健工作者（HCWs）对影响使用的弹性半面罩呼吸器（EHMR）属性的知识和信心。
方法
对卫生保健工作者进行了关于其EHMR 佩戴和脱下经验的调查。根据得分将受访者分为能力类别。使用 χ 2 和多逻辑回归分析类别差异。
结果
72%的人表现出高水平的 EHMR 佩戴和脱下知识和信心（精通）；然而，21%的人对 EHMR 知识的信心大于知识（信息错误）。呼吸治疗师比其他 HCWs 更有可能掌握（P < 0.05），而在医疗/外科和儿科病房工作的人比其他 HCWs 更有可能怀疑（P < 0.01）。
结论
尽管大多数 HCWs 对 EHMR 的使用表现出高度的知识和信心，但确认呼吸器使用能力的策略可能会确保 HCWs 得到更好的保护。
