Abstract
Respiratory protection systems are provided containing a form-fitting facial frame and a removable filter media. The respiratory protection systems can alleviate the problems with fit and comfort of traditional respiratory protection systems. The form-fitting facial frame can intimately contact face of a subject and can be configured to removably secure a filter media. The form-fitting facial frame can include an upper frame portion configured to intimately contact the dorsum nasi and cheekbone of a subject, and lower frame portion configured to intimately contact the jaw line of the subject. In some embodiments, the form-fitting facial frame is manufactured based upon a facial feature of a subject. The form-fitting facial frame can be manufactured by 3D printing. The respiratory system can be used with common mechanical filter media including N95 and N100 filter media.
