A study was conducted to ascertain the efficiency and effectiveness of an air filtration system (Electromedia Model 100C, Clean Air UK, UK) in the hospital ward. The sampling was conducted using a portable Surface Air Sampler (Cherwell Laboratories, Bicester, UK) in conjunction with settle plates. Samples were taken two days before and two days following activation of the filtration system and results compared. A clear, demonstrable, statistically significant reduction in microbial organisms following the activation of the filtration systems is evident (81% settle plates; 24% Surface Air Sampler). This study has implications for the improved health and welfare of patients and healthcare workers who may benefit through the implementation of such a system. |
