Ensuring Ultra-Clean Air in Transplantation and Fertility Departments with ASPRA Ceiling

Protecting Patients from Airborne Risks in Critical Hospital Departments

ASPRA Ceiling: A Flexible, Sustainable Alternative to Complex Ventilation Systems

Critical hospital departments such as transplantation and fertility units require exceptionally clean air to protect immunocompromised patients from particulate matter (PM) and airborne pathogens. Traditional ventilation systems struggle to maintain safety standards, as they often fail to establish positive pressure and prevent pathogen infiltration.

The ASPRA Ceiling system offers a cost-effective and efficient alternative by providing 100% air recirculation and generating positive pressure inside patient rooms. Installed above the ceiling with its own extraction and inlet plenums, the system ensures ultra-clean air, safeguarding patient health without the need for expensive ventilation upgrades.

About the Project

Hospitals, particularly departments such as transplantation and fertility, require strict air quality control to protect vulnerable patients from harmful airborne contaminants. Even the lowest levels of PM and pathogens can pose serious health risks, while ventilation systems often fall short of delivering sufficient air changes or maintaining positive pressure.

To address this challenge, ASPRA Ceiling was installed to provide 100% air recirculation while creating a controlled air environment with positive pressure inside patient rooms. By eliminating airborne contaminants at the source, the system offers an effective alternative to complex and costly ventilation systems, ensuring continuous patient safety and compliance.

Detailed Approach

Problem Description

In critical hospital departments like transplantation and fertility, strict air quality control is essential, as even the smallest levels of airborne contaminants can endanger patient health. Traditional ventilation systems often struggle to establish positive pressure, making it difficult to prevent cross-contamination from other hospital areas.

To maintain a consistently safe environment, hospitals need an efficient and cost-effective air purification solution that can effectively control airborne particles and pathogens without requiring major ventilation system modifications.

The Solution

The ASPRA Ceiling system was installed to enable 100% recirculation of room air, ensuring continuous filtration and purification. Installed above the ceiling, the system features independent extraction and inlet plenums, preventing pathogen infiltration and maintaining a contaminant-free environment.

In some areas, ASPRA Ceiling was also used to generate positive pressure, creating a protective airflow over patient beds. This solution allowed hospitals to maintain clean, controlled environments without the need for costly ventilation overhauls.

The Result

The ASPRA Ceiling system effectively minimized PM and pathogen levels, ensuring optimal air quality for patients in transplantation and fertility departments. The solution provided continuous air safety, independent of the hospital’s existing ventilation system.

The cost-effective design allowed for major cost savings, as hospitals no longer needed expensive ducting modifications to achieve the required air quality and positive pressure. This flexible and sustainable system continues to play a vital role in patient safety.
