Scope
YY/T 0691-2008 is the English-translated version of 传染性病原体防护装备 医用面罩抗合成血穿透性试验方法（固定体积、水平喷射）.
YY/T 0691-2008 is the Chinese standard "Clothing for protection against infectious agents—Medical face masks—Test method for resistance against penetration by synthetic blood(fixed volume, horizontally projected)".
Its scope clause reads: This standard describes a laboratory test method for measuring the resistance of medical face masks to penetration by a splash of synthetic blood.
This standard primarily addresses the performance of materials or certain material constructions used in medical face masks.
This standard does not address the performance of the medical face mask's design, construction, interfaces or other factors which may affect the overall protection offered by the medical face mask and its operation (such as filtration efficiency and pressure drop).
This test method does not address breathability of the medical face mask materials or any other properties affecting the ease of breathing through the medical face mask.
This test method evaluates the protective performance of medical masks, but it does not evaluate the performance of medical face masks as a protection against contamination via airborne exposure pathways or in the prevention of the penetration of aerosolized body fluids deposited on the medical face mask. Its clauses include terms and definitions.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this standard, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1 aerosolized body fluids
body fluids which have been dispersed into air as very small liquid droplets
3.2 airborne exposure pathway
inhalation routes of exposure to the medical face mask wearer
Note: Inhalation routes of exposure do not include streams of blood or body fluid that may be expelled from a wound.
3.3 blood-borne pathogen
any bacterium, virus, or other microbe carried and spread in blood or other body fluids
3.4 body fluid
