Expected Research Output:

Insights into hospital supply chains and demand forecasting for medical Personal Protective Equipment, the effects of PPE conservation strategies on ordering of PPE supplies during the pandemic.

Collaborative Opportunities:

  • Looking for data on hospitals' PPE purchasing before and during COVID, hospital PPE reuse policies during COVID (crowdsource: https://forms.gle/X11i2T22EmmJdXYPA).
  • Looking for anyone who looks at human factors of PPE (comfort, fit, etc.), anyone who looks at global supply chain management (particularly for healthcare products), anyone who has or is gathering data on hospital PPE purchasing or use (nationally or internationally). We are also gathering data and could collaborate with this.

Our top priority is looking for data from individual hospitals.
