Imagine a Hospital Where Infections Are a Thing of the Past: Exploring Innovative Air Purification Technology

Healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) are a significant concern in healthcare facilities, posing risks to patients’ well-being and even their lives. HAIs encompass various infections that originate within hospitals and healthcare settings, affecting patients across different care settings, from acute care hospitals to long-term care facilities.

Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) in India are a significant concern for patient safety and public health. Studies have shown varying prevalence rates of HAIs in different healthcare settings across India.

Understanding the Challenge of HAIs HAIs can occur in different forms, including central line-associated bloodstream infections, catheter-associated urinary tract infections, surgical site infections, and ventilator-associated pneumonia. These infections not only lead to prolonged hospital stays and increased healthcare costs but also have devastating emotional and medical effects on patients.

One of the significant challenges in combating HAIs lies in the spread of biological contaminants within healthcare environments.

The Need for Innovative Solutions Addressing the challenges posed by HAIs requires innovative solutions that prioritise infection control and air quality management.

Integrated Air Purification and Sterilisation System (IAPS) – By Pulmocare Medical System Pulmocare has introduced an innovative solution to combat HAIs effectively – the Integrated Air Purification and Sterilisation System (IAPS).

• A six-level filtration system, including pre-filters, ESP, carbon filters, medical-grade HEPA filters, and ionisers, to effectively capture and eliminate airborne contaminants.
• Built-in UV-C technology for sterilisation, ensuring thorough disinfection of the air.
• Remote control operation and integrated humidity control for convenient and efficient use.

By focusing on infection control and leveraging innovative technology, Pulmocare’s IAPS offers a comprehensive solution to prevent the spread of infections and create safer healthcare environments.

HAIs continue to be a significant threat to patient safety and well-being in healthcare settings. Effective infection prevention and control measures are essential to minimise the risk of HAIs and create safer environments for patients, healthcare providers, and staff.

Pulmocare’s Integrated Air Purification and Sterilisation System (IAPS) offers a promising solution to combat HAIs effectively, providing healthcare facilities with the tools they need to protect patients and improve overall healthcare outcomes.
