No, a respirator is a device that helps a person breathe by delivering air or oxygen to the lungs. Life support is a broader term referring to a range of therapies or interventions that help sustain a person's vital functions when they cannot do so on their own, including the use of a respirator but also other treatments like medications or dialysis.
If it is only the dust you are worried about then a particulate respirator will provide protection, i.e. a N95 up to a P100. That is if there is enough oxygen in the area that you can use an air purifying respirator. If not then you would need to use supplied air. Supplied air is often used during the fumigation process where a cartridge respirator may not provide adequat protection.
No, not everyone can use a respirator. Only individuals who have been properly trained to select, use, and maintain respirators should do so. Additionally, individuals must undergo medical evaluations to ensure they are physically able to wear a respirator.
No, Basic Life Support and First Aid are not the same thing. Basic Life Support means the needs of our daily life, i. e food, clothes and a house to live in, but First Aid means the initial treatment given to an injured person till the doctor or ambulance doesn't arrive.
Before using an air purifying respirator, you must ensure that the respirator is properly fitted to your face, seals securely against your skin, and that the filters are correct for the type of contaminants present in the environment. Additionally, you should perform a user seal check to ensure proper fit before each use.
Life support means keeping one alive when their body is unable to do this on it's own. The decisions as to when to take someone off life support is taken by doctors.
No. A respirator and ventilator are alike, but different. A ventilator is what they out people on either life support or during surgery. A respirator is used to help breathing not do it for you! (:
Yes. If one cannot survive without intubation and mechanical ventilation (a respirator), then that would be considered artificial life support.
The word respirator has no perfect rhymes.
Yes. Respirator only keep lungs going.

Any respirator will do. Make sure you're buying a "respirator" and not just a mask. The packaging will say "respirator". If you are working in an attic, especially in summer, you'll be apt to remove the respirator because of the heat and discomfort as well as the inability to communicate with others (I know this personally). However, if you do this, you might as well not even wear the respirator in the first place. If you're entering an area that you know contains rodents, just try to get the job done as quickly as you can with the respirator on. I was an electrician and worked in lots of old houses and I got used to wearing the respirator. I was also a soldier and learned the importance of trusting my equipment. A respirator is much more comfortable than an NBC pro mask.
If filters aren't working on a negative pressure respirator, the best solution is to stop using it immediately and replace the filters. Continuing to use the respirator without proper filtration puts the user at risk of inhaling harmful contaminants. It is important to regularly check and replace filters as per manufacturer guidelines to ensure proper functioning.
A NIOSH-approved respirator with organic vapor cartridges is recommended for working with polyurethane.
They all support life that can adapt in that type of biome.
yes
Ventilator (also called a respirator)--assists with or controls pulmonary ventilation in patients who cannot breathe on their own. Ventilators consist of a flexible breathing circuit, gas supply, heating/humidification mechanism, monitors.
No, an air purifying respirator will NOT save your life in an oxygen deficient atmosphere.An air PURIFYING respirator removes bad things from air. It does not MAKE good things (like oxygen). In an oxygen deficient atmosphere, you must have a supply of oxygen. This is usually provided by an SCBA, or an air line respirator.Underground miners have "self rescue breathers." These are a form of respirator that can make oxygen. They are very expensive, have limited uses, and work for a limited time.
