Abstract

With ongoing Corona-pandemic, the quality of personal protection equipment (PPE) across the globe is creating controversy. This article presents a novel design of a facial mask that seems suitable to deal with short airway procedures protecting the surgeon from aerosol infection. The concept, design advantages and limitations are discussed. In absence of good quality PPEs this is an excellent option to deal with airway emergencies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
