卫生保健工作者在佩戴外科或N95口罩时没有显著的声音质量变化. 面具屏障效应,而不是面具类型,在长期的流行病使用期间影响了声音的感知和质量.
科学领域:
- 职业健康 职业健康 职业健康
- 喉腔病理学 喉腔病理学
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
背景情况:
- 在疫情期间,医疗保健专业人员经常长时间佩戴口罩.
- 不同类型的口罩对健康医疗保健工作者的声音的影响尚未得到充分了解.
研究的目的:
- 评估外科和N95口罩对医疗保健工作者的声音的影响.
- 为了比较口罩类型之间的语音质量,声学参数和生理测量.
主要方法:
- 41名医疗保健工作者被分为手术 (n=21) 和N95 (n=20) 面具组.
- 评估包括视频鼻镜,语音障碍指数-10 (VHI-10),GRBAS,声学分析,空气动力学测量 (MPT) 和血液氧和.
- 在工作日内至少使用8小时口罩之前和之后进行了评估.
主要成果:
- 在两组中都没有观察到VHI-10得分的统计学上显著增加.
- 9.6%的手术口罩使用者和15%的N95使用者注意到轻微的语音质量恶化.
- 对于这两种口罩类型,在动和相对平均扰动 (RAP) 中发现了统计学上显著的变化,血液中氧度大幅下降.
结论:
- 在手术和N95口罩使用者之间,语音质量没有显著差异.
- 面具的屏障效应,而不是特定的类型,似乎影响了声音的感知和质量.
- 进一步的研究可能会探索长期的语音影响和缓解策略.

Administering Oxygen by Mask
Administering oxygen by mask is a common nursing intervention that provides supplemental oxygen to patients with respiratory distress or chronic lung conditions. This procedure involves delivering oxygen at a specified rate through a face mask connected to an oxygen source.
Equipment
The equipment necessary for this procedure includes:
Oxygen Delivering System I: Nasal Cannula and Face Mask
Nasal Cannula
A nasal cannula is a lightweight tube split at one end into two prongs and placed in the nostrils. It is typically used to deliver low to medium levels of oxygen.
Suggested flow rate: The suggested flow rate for a nasal cannula typically ranges between 1 and 6 L/min.
Oxygen percentage setting:...

The larynx consists of various components, including cartilage, muscles, and vocal cords. Its structure includes three large unpaired cartilages—the thyroid, cricoid, and epiglottis—and three smaller paired cartilages—the arytenoids,...
Oxygen Delivering System II: Venturi Mask and Transtracheal Oxygen
Venturi Mask
The Venturi mask, named after the Venturi effect, is designed to deliver precise oxygen concentrations. It consists of a large tube with an oxygen inlet that narrows down, causing a pressure drop that pulls air in through adjustable side ports. The mask is a lightweight,...
