Solutions by department

Protected environments for oncology and haematology

HEPA-MD® air decontamination in patient rooms, ISO-class zones around the bed and modular positive-pressure rooms, plus UVC terminal disinfection.

Healthcare challenge

The challenge in oncology & haematology

Patients receiving chemotherapy or stem-cell transplantation can be severely neutropenic for long periods. Airborne fungi such as Aspergillus are a major concern, especially during nearby construction.

Risks and operational considerations

  • Invasive aspergillosis in neutropenic patients
  • Construction and renovation dust
  • Limited number of protected rooms
  • Long stays with visitors and staff movement

Recommended Capnova solution

A layered approach, not a single device

HEPA-MD® air decontamination in patient rooms, ISO-class zones around the bed and modular positive-pressure rooms, plus UVC terminal disinfection.

Relevant products and technologies

Each technology covers a different route: air, surfaces or shared equipment. The final mix is confirmed after a site assessment.
