Effective volume of rebreathed air during breathing with facepieces increases with protection class and decreases with ambient airflow.
Wearing facepieces is discussed in the context of increasing the volume of rebreathed air. We hypothesized that rebreathed air volume increases with increasing filtering facepiece (FFP) class and that persons breathing via facepieces compensate for the additional dead-space. We have determined the e...
