Abstract:
Modern operating rooms are increasingly turning to contamination control by ventilating technology for the infectious control. The objective of this study is to present the strategic approach on performance improvement of the ventilating system for a hospital operating room under limit budget. A physical partition curtain has been proposed and conducted around the high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter of an operating room to validate the improvement of air distribution and contamination control. Numerical simulation of a full-scale operating room has been carried out at a district hosp

Abstract:
Forced ventilation is applied in clean rooms, specifically operating rooms, to ensure the health of both the patient and the medical staff. Ventilation reduces the risk of patient contamination, and its parameters are legally prescribed. In addition to preventing contamination, the ventilation system also ensures the creation of a comfortable environment for personnel who spend a large amount of working time in the operating room. This research focuses on the appropriate design of the air flow rate from the distribution element to the operating room. The PMV and PPD indexes were used to evalua

Abstract:
AbstractHealthcare associated infections in surgical procedures have long been the focus of scientific research. In Germany, more than 225,000 patients suffer from such infections each year [1]. However, the reduction of the microbiological contamination is not only limited by cleaning and disinfecting measures. The choice of the ventilation system in the operating room or the type of the clothing of the personnel during the operation is also an important factor contributing to patient safety and infection control. Currently there are different approaches for assessing the hygienic situation i

Abstract:
Abstract During operative care copious amounts of fluid can accumulate in the patient’s mouth. These fluids can come from hand pieces and the three-in-one syringe. Furthermore there can be increased levels of saliva as well as gingival exudate and even blood. Such accumulation of fluids can be uncomfortable for the patient and obscure the operating site. Moisture contamination can have an effect on the quality of adhesive restorations (Summitt 2001). A lack of appropriate isolation can not only lead to potential contamination of the root canal system in endodontic therapy but can also heighten

Abstract Inadvertent perioperative hypothermia is common but preventable. General and regional anesthesia decreases core temperature by 0.5–1.5°C. In-line warming devices should be used to warm fluids and blood products to 37°C before administration during the intraoperative period. Fluid warmers are classified as a dry warming system, countercurrent heat exchanger, water bath system, convective air system, and insulators. Delivery of heated fluid depends on warming method, flow rate, and length of tubing between warmer and patient. Ranger fluid warmers are commonly used in operating rooms (OR

Abstract Steam turbine blade and disc failures have occurred from time to time throughout the world. Although they are rare events, the implications for safety, for repair costs and for loss of availability are severe. Current operational and maintenance practices for any particular turbine design may be based on many years of satisfactory service. However, recent deregulation of the power industry in the UK and forthcoming deregulation in the USA may have an effect on operational and reliability issues, as changing operational demands are placed upon power generators through economic forces.

The reactor is situated in a water pool with inner diameter of 3 m. and a depth of 7.5 m. The reactor core is situated 5.3m under water level. Besides the reactor, the pool contains pneumatic loops, handling tools, graphite blocks for neutron moderation and other experimental equipment. The building houses

Semiconductor interference filters based on II-VI semiconductors show promise as large area, room temperature, optically bistable devices for applications in digital optical circuits using visible light [11]. These active filters, operating by opto-thermally induced changes in material optical constants, have generally been fabricated by thermal evaporation of multilayers of ZnSe or ZnS and some low index material. Evaporated filters are limited in thickness and tend to suffer from drift of operating point during use. In this work we have studied Fabry-Perot filters deposited entirely in an ul

The net working capacity of floating roof tanks is the product inventory that is stored between the maximum and minimum operating levels of the floating roof. The product that remains in the tank when the floating roof is at its minimum operating level is residual inventory, referred to as the product heel. This trapped inventory is a valuable product asset that is not part of the tank net working capacity.

The contamination of surface and subterranean drinking water supplies with nitrogen-laden agricultural wastewater is a problem of increasing concern in the U.S. and Israel.

Two species of bacteria, Cellulomonas uda and a Comamonas sp., were required for dentitrification. Celulomonas uda degraded cellulose and reduced nitrate to nitrite.
