The RespoKare Anti-viral Child Mask is a single use, disposable device that is intended to be worn by children (recommended ages 5-10) to cover the nose and mouth to provide a barrier for the respiratory tract for microorganisms, body fluid and particulate materials. The mask is specifically for child or pediatric patients to provide protection for the respiratory tract. This face mask is recommended for use in a healthcare setting with appropriate adult supervision. The RespoKare Anti-viral Child Mask has hydrophilic plastic coating (active ingredient: citric acid 2%, a pH lowering agent) that rapidly absorbs aerosol droplets away from the outer surface of the mask and a second inner layer treated with metal ions (active ingredients: copper 1.6% and zinc 1.6%) that inactivate influenza viruses.
A form-shaped filtering mask designed to be placed over the nose and mouth of a healthcare worker to permit normal breathing while protecting the wearer and patient from large and small particles during medical, surgical, dental, and isolation procedures; it includes an antimicrobial/antiviral agent to destroy specified pathogens under specified contact conditions. It is typically made of multiple layers of non-woven polymers to produce a soft, flexible mask that will create an airtight seal against the user’s face and typically secured using elastic head straps or ties; it may incorporate a forming nosepiece (metal wire) and/or an exhalation valve. This is a single-use device.
