Hospital Air Shower Room: An Important Barrier to Ensure the Safety of the Medical Environment
In the infection control system of hospitals, the air shower room plays an indispensable role. It is a key facility to prevent the spread of pathogens and ensure the cleanliness and safety of the medical environment.
The air shower room mainly uses high-speed clean air flow to blow and shower personnel entering a specific area to remove dust, bacteria and other contaminants attached to their surfaces. The following are the key roles of the air shower room in hospitals:
Key Points
1. Effective removal of contaminants
- The strong air flow of the air shower room can blow off dust particles and microorganisms on the surface of personnel's clothing.
- Reduce the amount of contaminants brought into the sterile area or clean wards and lower the risk of cross-infection.
2. Control of air flow direction
- Ensure that the air flow follows a specific path to prevent unclean air from the outside from entering the sensitive area.
- Maintain positive pressure indoors to prevent the backflow of polluted air.
3. Rapid purification
- Personnel complete the air shower process in a short time without affecting work efficiency.
- Quickly restore the cleanliness of the indoor area to ensure the continuity of medical operations.
4. Zoning and isolation
- Clearly divide areas of different cleanliness levels and enhance the isolation effect between areas.
- Avoid contamination of high cleanliness areas by low cleanliness areas.

Specific Applications in Hospitals
1. Entrance to the operating room
- Before the operation, medical staff pass through the air shower room to reduce contaminants brought into the operating room and reduce the risk of surgical infection.
- Ensure the aseptic state of the operating environment and improve the success rate of the operation.
2. Sterile wards
- Protect patients with low immune function from external pathogens.
- Maintain the cleanliness of the wards and promote the recovery of patients.
3. Laboratory areas
- For microbiological laboratories, biosafety laboratories, etc., prevent experimental samples from being contaminated and ensure the accuracy of experimental results.
4. Drug production and storage areas
- Ensure that the drug production and storage environment meets strict hygiene standards and guarantees the quality of drugs.
