[MCOH-EH] Amphotericin B inhalation therapy

[Upfal, Mark]

I'd like to hear from anyone who has looked into the administration of amphotericin B aerosol therapy.  What safeguards (engineering controls, PPE, work practice, etc) do you provide to respiratory therapists, nurses or any other staff that enter patient rooms during, before & after administration of the drug?
