Burns unit infection control
Continuous HEPA-MD® air treatment, protected zones for the most severe cases and UVC terminal disinfection.
Healthcare challenge
The challenge in burns units
Burns patients have lost their skin barrier and are at high risk from bacteria and fungi in the air and on surfaces. Dressing changes release particles into the room.
Risks and operational considerations
- Wound colonisation by environmental organisms
- Airborne fungi and bacteria
- Particles released during dressing changes
- Long stays and frequent procedures
