HEPA-CARE Portable Air Scrubbers Inside ER Treatment Rooms
HEPA-CARE Portable Air Scrubbers Inside ER Treatment Rooms

Suwanee, Georgia (PRWEB) June 17, 2015 -- Mitigating the Risk of Airborne Infection to Healthcare Providers

Highly mobile Abatement Technologies HEPA-CARE portable HEPA filtration systems are the number one choice of infection control specialists for creating surge capacity, negative pressure AIIR.

Post this

With recent outbreaks of MERS-CoV in the Republic of Korea, the World Health Organization (WHO) recommends continuation of strong disease control measures to help bring the outbreak to an end. (Manila, 13 June 2015 – WHO Recommends Continuation of Strong Disease Control Measures). Mitigating the spread of airborne infection as part of a quick response strategy is becoming more important than ever. Healthcare facilities are equipped with a limited number of Airborne Infectious Isolation Rooms (AIIR) to accommodate a normal level of patients requiring isolation. It is imperative that facilities have proper planning and resources giving them the ability to protect nurses, doctors, hospital staff and patients during outbreak conditions.

A four-day joint mission between the World Health Organization (WHO) and South Korean health officials to probe the recent MERS-CoV outbreak released a list of eleven recommendations to prevent further spread and to better prepare for future risks. The majority of these recommendations surround stronger isolation. They include:

• Early and thorough identification of all contacts
• Strong isolation and monitoring of contacts
• An increase in the number of negative-pressure rooms at hospitals

Products for Emergency Preparedness and Infectious Patient Isolation

Abatement Technologies proven and user-friendly infectious patient isolation products are used today in thousands of healthcare facilities around the world. With recent deployment of systems in Saudi Arabia and the UAE, Abatement Technologies has helped control the spread of MERS-CoV to healthcare workers and the general population by creating proper containment environments within healthcare facilities not equipped to handle outbreak conditions. Abatement Technologies is in close communication with medical officials in South Korea, Saudi Arabia and Qatar to develop deployment and preparedness strategies that will help prevent further spread of infection from diagnosed patients.

HEPA-CARE® Portable HEPA Filtration Systems

Highly mobile Abatement Technologies HEPA-CARE portable HEPA filtration systems are the number one choice of infection control specialists for creating surge capacity, negative pressure AIIR. These lightweight units can be rolled easily and deployed quickly to wherever they are needed within the facility.
