The Procedure for Respirator Exam
- Medical History Review: Our healthcare professionals start by reviewing your medical history, including any respiratory conditions, allergies, or other relevant health information.
- Physical Examination: A thorough physical examination is conducted to assess your respiratory health. This may include lung function tests, chest X-rays, and other evaluations to detect any pre-existing conditions.
- Fit Testing: If required, a fit test is performed to ensure that the respirator seals properly on your face, providing an airtight seal.

- Peak Flow Meter: It measures how quickly you can exhale air from your lungs, helping assess respiratory strength and function.
- Chest X-rays: X-ray images of the chest can reveal any underlying lung conditions or abnormalities.
- Fit Testing Equipment: If required, fit testing equipment is used to ensure the proper fit and seal of the respirator on your face, ensuring effective protection.
