Types of pollution
In hospitals, there are several rooms which require local extraction, eg operating rooms and medicine rooms. Some of the polluting working processes are:
- Laser and electrosurgical devices developing surgical smoke
-
Mixing and hardening of bone cements
-
Mixing of intravenous drugs developing aerosols.
Local extraction with an extraction arm
An extraction arm is an efficient solution which is easily pushed aside when not in use. When mounted with a suction pen or a small hood, it will stay close to the wound and extract smoke and vapours before they are breathed in. The extraction arms are available in various sizes that depend on air volumes needed.
A cabinet is an efficient alternative for work with medicine. With the correct air volume, it works as a closed system. We recommend an air velocity of 0,5 m/s at the opening.
