Yes, a medical evaluation is required. - Diane Amell, MNOSHA >>>06/21/06 2:32 PM >>> Hello all, I was wondering if anyone knew whether or not a medical evaluation was necessary for lab personnel wearing a Supplied-air respirator, from reading 29 CFR 1910.134 it looks like they would but I just wanted to be sure. This would pertain to someone working in a lab that put on a loose fitting hood and have it hooked up to a hose that supplied ambient air to the user. Thanks, Jason
