个人防护装备（PPE）可能加剧热应激，这可能对穿戴者的工作表现、安全和健康产生负面影响。鉴于此，在2019年英国冠状病毒病大流行期间，向需要佩戴个人防护装备的医护人员（HCWs）分发了一份调查，以评估感知到的热应激水平及其后果。受访者报告说，他们经历了几种与热有关的疾病症状，热应激损害了认知和身体表现。大多数受访者表示，佩戴个人防护装备使他们的工作更加困难。这些以及其他回应表明，迫切需要修改目前的工作做法，以提高卫生工作者在大流行期间佩戴个人防护装备的适应能力。
Personal protective equipment (PPE) can potentiate heat stress, which may have a negative impact on the wearer's performance, safety and well-being. In view of this, a survey was distributed to healthcare workers (HCWs) required to wear PPE during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic in the UK to evaluate perceived levels of heat stress and its consequences. Respondents reported experiencing several heat-related illness symptoms, and heat stress impaired both cognitive and physical performance. The majority of respondents stated that wearing PPE made their job more difficult. These, and additional, responses suggest that modification to current working practices is required urgently to improve the resilience of HCWs to wearing PPE during pandemics.
