Definitions

  • a face mask is commonly worn by health professionals during events such as surgeries and other medical procedures, dental procedures, and the like to protect both the wearer and the surrounding parties from contamination.
  • the masks are designed to catch liquid droplets and aerosolized particles from the wearer's mouth and nose, and to stop bodily fluids and other splashes from reaching the covered portions of the wearer's face.
  • Face masks are typically made from paper or other non-woven material, and often have three layers (i.e., 3-ply). Typically, these layers consist of a melt-blown material that is placed between non-woven fabrics. The melt-blown material acts as a filter that prevents contaminants from entering or exiting the mask.
  • Face masks include pleats or folds that enable the expansion of the mask's surface area, so that it covers the area of the wearer's face from the nose to the chin.
  • Face masks used for surgical procedures typically have four straps that are tied behind the head.
  • Other variations include those that are affixed to the wearer's face via ear loops, where a string-like material is attached to the mask and placed behind the ears, and masks that have an elastic headband strap that is placed behind the head.
  • a face mask may include a transparent plastic piece having a front side, a back side, a top side, a bottom side, a left side, and a right side.
  • a first conformable member may be affixed to a first portion of the back side and disposed parallel to the top side.
  • a second conformable member may be affixed to a second portion of the back side and disposed parallel to the bottom side.
  • At least one first strap may have a first strap portion including a first end and a second strap portion including a second end, where portions of the first strap portion and the second strap portion are affixed parallel to the top side of the plastic piece.
  • At least one second strap may have a first strap portion including a first end and a second strap portion including a second end, where portions of the first strap portion and the second strap portion are affixed parallel to the bottom side of the plastic piece.
  • a face mask may include a transparent plastic piece having a front side, a back side, a top side, a bottom side, a left side, and a right side.
  • a conformable member may be affixed to a second portion of the back side and disposed parallel to the bottom side.
  • the face mask may include an elastic band, where a portion of the elastic band is affixed parallel to the top side of the plastic piece.
  • a first strap portion may have a first end and a second strap portion may have a second end, where portions of the first strap portion and the second strap portion are affixed parallel to the bottom side of the plastic piece.
  • a transparent plastic piece having a front side, a back side, a top side, a bottom side, a left side, and a right side.
  • a first conformable member may be affixed to a first portion of the back side and disposed parallel to the top side.
  • a second conformable member may be affixed to a second portion of the back side and disposed parallel to the bottom side.
  • a first elastic strap may have a first end and a second end, where the first end and the second end are affixed to different portions of the left side to form a first loop.
  • a second elastic strap having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end and the second end are affixed to different portions of the right side to form a second loop.

  • Miscommunication is a leading cause of medical errors.
  • the potential for miscommunication may be especially compounded in deaf and hard of hearing medical patients when standard face masks, such as a surgical mask, are used. It is estimated that approximately 55% of communication is nonverbal.
  • Standard surgical masks block the wearer's face and prevent the ability of others to see facial expressions and read lips of the mask wearer.

  • the viewing area may be translucent, opaque, or the like.
  • the transparent viewing area may be coated with an anti-fog or fog-resistant coating to provide full-face visibility.
  • the mask may include features that provide for comfort and breathability.
  • Implementations of the disclosed subject matter may provide a face mask having a transparent plastic piece and/or extended plastic piece, and conformable members affixed to a back side of the plastic piece.
  • the plastic piece may provide improved visibility to whole face of the user of the face mask, such that others may observe the full facial expressions and/or lip movements of-the user.
  • the plastic piece may act as an impermeable barrier for air and/or other particulates and may provide increased protection compared to conventional face masks made from cloth-like materials.
  • the conformable members of the face mask may provide better fit, less slipping, increased stability, and/or increased breathability for a user of the face mask, compared to conventional face masks.
  • the conformable member may push the transparent plastic piece away from the user's face and/or lips to prevent them from touching the transparent plastic piece and/or to increase comfort and breathability by allowing for air to flow in and/or out from the sides of the face mask, and/or the back of the face mask. That is, the conformable members may seal the top and bottom of the mask and/or create a “pocket” for air flow along with the plastic piece by preventing air flow from going forward and/or out of the top and/or bottom of the face mask.
