Detailed Description
Demonstrate that safety and suitability of the iZephyr Hood in patients receiving non-invasive ventilation (NIV) or high flow oxygen therapy (HFOT).
Determine the user acceptability of the iZephyr Hood in patients receiving NIV and HFOT.
Determine the reduction in aerosol spread of COVID-19 viral particles when using the Zephyr hood in patients using non-invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Determine the background concentration of SARS-Co-V2 around COVID patients receiving NIV [3 month]
Air and surface sampling for SARS Co-V2 around COVID patients receiving non invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen therapy.
- Determine the background concentration of SARS-Co-V2 when the iZephyr hood is in use [12 months]
Air and surface sampling for SARS Co-V2 around COVID patients receiving non invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen therapy inside an iZephyr hood.
- Impact of iZephyr hood on environmental SARS Co-V2 contamination [12 months]
Determine if there is a change in the concentration of SARS-Co-V2 virus on the surfaces and in the air samples surrounding a COVID-19 positive patient whilst using the iZephyr compared to when not using the iZephyr.
