Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
Fit testing is essential to evaluate the effectiveness of respiratory protective equipment (RPE) for ensuring occupational safety. Korea currently lacks a standardized fit test panel that reflects domestic facial characteristics, although international guidelines emphasize its establishment. This study aimed to validate a Korean fit test panel developed according to international standards and to examine the consistency of fit test results between human subjects and headforms with comparable facial dimensions.
