[MCOH-EH] Safety procedures for audiometric testing and spirometry in the era of COVID

[Radke, Laura L. M.D.]

We are also ready to resume these services.  Our infection prevention team has revised the required PPE and we will be able to follow the new guidance.  We would like to purchase filters for BAT and spirometry.  We use Intoximeters and Midmark spirometry.  Has anyone purchased filters for these devices and might be able to share the manufacturer/product number for them?

Appreciate any assistance that can be provided and thank you in advance!

Subject: [MCOH-EH] Safety procedures for audiometric testing and spirometry in the era of COVID

Greetings everyone, I am wondering if anyone has any updated safety procedures they may wish to share regarding audiometric testing and spirometry in the era of COVID?

Given the increasing vaccination rates and standard pre-testing screening questions, etc. we are finalizing our plans to re-introduce these tests.

Any references would also be most appreciated.

Thank you,

Craig
