Srovnání účinnosti respirátorů používaných u HZS ČR

Abstract

This master thesis deals with the testing of efficacy of selected respirators used at the HZS ČR. It was determined which of the tested respirators has a best fit factor and at the same time is the most comfortable for the persons who use it. At the beginning of our work we focus on the aerosols and their effects on humans, after on physiology of respiration and function of the respiratory organs. Then we will show the possibilities of the respiratory protection and distribution of protective equipment. In the practical part, we describe the process of the measurement made on the devices used to detect fit factor of the respirators and the results of the individual tests. At the end of this thesis, based on measured results and subjective feelings, we evaluate the most suitable respirator.
