— Explanation · 中文詳解 —
空氣隔離（Airborne precautions）適用於透過微小懸浮微粒傳播的病原體，如結核病（TB）、麻疹或水痘。病室需具備負壓通風設施，且護理人員需配戴 N95 口罩，以過濾極微小的致病菌粒子。
Airborne precautions are required for diseases transmitted by small, suspended particles that remain infectious over long distances, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This differs from droplet precautions used for influenza or pertussis, and contact precautions used for MRSA. Healthcare providers must wear N95 respirators and care for the patient in a negative-pressure room.
