Pre-form the nose-clip.
Pull the mask from the top and bottom to fully unfold the pleats of the surgical mask.
Place the surgical mask on your face making sure to cover your nose and mouth.
Position the upper tie-bands at the crown of your head and tighten securely to minimize air leakage.
Position the lower tie-bands at the nape of your neck and tighten.
Always unfold the mask fully to minimize the number of layers you have to breathe through.
Change surgical mask when contaminated as well as between operations.
