PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT DURING THE PANDEMIC

Ovaj rad je predviđen za pružanje pomoći i korisnih smjernica tijekom potencijalnih pandemija/epidemija u budućem vremenu, posebice kad su u pitanju zaštitna sredstva i oprema koja omogućava da se spasi što više ljudskih života, te da se zaštiti sve ljude i medicinsko osoblje na najvišoj mogućoj razini. Prvenstveno je ukazana važnost korištenja zaštitnih sredstava i opreme koja se navodi u ovom radu, a koristila se u nizu medicinskih ustanova, ali i van njih i pomogla u sprječavanju širenja koronavirusa. Naravno, uvijek su moguća nova poboljšanja i sofisticiranija oprema kako bi se prevencija i zaštita stanovništva od zaraznih bolesti podignula na višu razinu i vjerujem da će u narednom vremenu pred nama, a poučeni proživljenim iskustvom u pandemiji/epidemiji koronavirusa, znanost naći načina kako zaustaviti zarazu još kvalitetnim i učinkovitijim zaštitnim sredstvima.This work is intended to provide help and useful advice during potential pandemics/epidemics in the future, especially when it comes to protective equipment that allows to save as many human lives as possible, and to protect all people and medical personnel at the highest possible level. Primarily, the importance of using the protective equipment mentioned in this paper was pointed out, and it was used in a number of medical institutions, as well as outside them, and helped prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Of course, new improvements and more sophisticated equipment are always possible in order to raise the prevention and protection of the population from infectious diseases to a higher level, and I believe that in the coming time ahead, and taught by the lived experience of the coronavirus pandemic/epidemic, science will find a way to stop the infection even more high- quality and effective protective equipment
