Central Filtration System with unique Laminar Air Flow
Why should we adopt it?
The laminar flow creates a positive pressure in the OT specially giving out fresh air on the operating area. This is the area from where any kind of infection is released (from patients’ body). The infection needs to be stopped from spreading to the OT environment. The air is quickly and continuously circulated through the exhaust system and purified through the HEPA filters and it becomes absolutely contamination free.
The patient is being operated on Anesthetic gasses and he breathes out air filled with waste anesthetic gasses. This is in turn inhaled by the surgeons in conventional air circulation system. In a Laminar Flow, the pressure in the center of the sterile zone is so much from the top that waste gasses are pushed down and are diverted to this sides of exhaust vents for recirculation.
Laminar Flow
Laminar flow ultraclean ventilation is used in modern operating theatres to reduce the number of infective organisms present in the air, which may lead to post-operative wound infection. A continuous flow of highly filtered ‘bacteria-free’ air is recirculated under positive pressure into the operating field and air contaminantes generated during surgery are removed from the site. This is of particular significance in joint prosthesis surgery, where delayed and deep-seated post-operative infection may result in poor patient outcomes and substantial costs, both to patients and health care providers.
The Opearting Theatre can be upgraded to a Clean room with modular contruction along with its peripheral attached rooms. We can also convert the Scrubbing area, Post-Sterilization room, Post Operative area or the entire OT complex including corridors as a Clean room. This will enable us to have a central air condition unit for the whole area and the infection rate and suspended particulate rate can be brought down drastically using strategically placed HEPA filtration system.
