4. GENERAL PREVENTIVE MEASURES respiratoire, 2e édition, (Practical Respiratory Protection Guide, 2 nd edition), IRSST, 2003. [Available on line, in French only, at: http//www.irsst.qc.ca/fr/_publicationirsst_862.html] 4.1.7.12 Surgical Mask Surgical masks do not provide respiratory protection against hazardous drugs. They may be used in the event of a respiratory tract infection to limit the risk of microbial contamination of the product (respiratory etiquette). 4.1.7.13 Shoe Covers Disposable shoe covers must be worn when required. Shoe covers should be changed halfway through each shift or after a total of 3.5 hours or in the event of contamination, spillage or breakage. Aseptic practices include the wearing of shoe covers. In addition, in some cases where the floor may be contaminated (for example, in front of the hood in the sterile preparation room or in the event of a spill), the shoe covers prevent contamination of the shoes and, therefore, spreading of the contamination.
