There is uncertainty about how to define an AGP and about the levels of risk associated with various procedures.3 Practices often defined as AGP include intubation and tracheal intubation, open airway suctioning, sputum induction, bronchoscopy, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) . and manual ventilation. Those generally not considered AGPs include ventilator circuit disconnection, oral suctioning and hygiene, transesophageal echocardiography, and chest tube insertion or removal. Nebulizer therapy, high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC), and high-frequency jet ventilation are sometimes referred to as AGP. For the examples consistently referred to as AGP, the risk of aerosolization may be overestimated, and the focus on risk reduction for these procedures underestimates the risks of aerosol in many unregistered patient care activities. Classifying a procedure as an AGP also creates a stigma, which can lead to unnecessary withholding of treatment and negative impacts on patient care. Current recommendations for personal…
