Hospital doorway clear width measurement

[ADAguy]

How do you measure it? from door face at 90 degrees to face of stop?
Full height of opening or floor to bottom of hardware at 34" ="s 44"

1010.1.1 Size of doors. The required capacity of each
door opening shall be sufficient for the occupant load
thereof and shall provide a minimum clear width of 32
inches (813 mm). Clear openings of doorways with swinging
doors shall be measured between the face of the door
and the stop, with the door open 90 degrees

Hospitals have a wider requirement, 44" min.
Won't a 48" door with projecting hardware meet this requirement?

Clear openings of doorways with swinging
doors shall be measured between the face of the door
and the stop, with the door open 90 degrees

not be projections into the required clear width lower
