METHOD OF USING BACTERIOPHAGES TO STUDY AIRBORNE PATHWAY OF VIRUS TRANSMISSION TO MEDICAL PERSONNEL IN TREATMENT OF PATIENTS Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC C12N7/00 

FIELD: preventive medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of preventive medicine, in which a method has been developed to study the airborne pathway of transmission of respiratory viruses on a bacteriophage model to medical workers of medical organizations during the treatment of patients to improve the prevention of morbidity of personnel. A method for studying the airborne pathway of transmission of respiratory viruses during the complex treatment of purulent and inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity, upper respiratory tract of patients on the model of a bacteriophage included in the drug "Bacteriophage of Staphylococcus bacteria + Streptococcus + proteus + Pseudomonas aeruginosa + Klebsiella pneumonia + E. coli, multicomponent", which is prescribed by a dentist, an otorhinolaryngologist in accordance with the instructions. During treatment, aerosol-generating technologies are used that contribute to the intensive spread of viruses, which is assessed by the detection of a model virus in the upper respiratory tract of personnel (nasal cavity), on their personal protective equipment (mask, glasses, shields, bathrobe), air, and on the objects of the external environment of the treatment room.

EFFECT: technical result of the proposed invention is to increase the effectiveness of measures to prevent infection with respiratory pathogens of medical personnel in dental clinics aimed at reducing the incidence of ARVI.
