WHAT YOU CAN NOW OFFER YOUR PATIENTS
If you're a health care professional caring for pulmonary compromised patients, the following information will change the way you think about providing them with a safer home environment.
Experts Set Standards For Operating Room Air Quality.
Airflow control engineers, experts from the medical community at the CDC, and specialized hospital architects from the AIA and ASHRAE have developed and implemented demanding standards for the quality of the hospital operating room air environment.
Their goals are:
- Delivering clean fresh air to patients and staff.
- Controlling the air pressure to prevent both the contraction and the spread of airborne diseases.
What Happens When the Pulmonary Compromised Patient Goes Home?
Developed and engineered for the home environment, the Icon exceeds the specifications set by the CDC, AIA and ASHRAE experts and successfully bridges the gap between the quality of the controlled air environment found at a hospital, and the risky exposure to airborne pathogens in the patient's home.
Icon Fresh Air Sterilization Process
In a single pass, the Icon brings in fresh air from outside the home and sterilizes the air. A scientific breakthrough in the design of the Icon prolongs, by a factor of ten, the exposure time of all airborne contaminants to intense germicidal ultraviolet light (UVC). Combining this unique feature with the use of HEPA and other filters, the Icon achieves a never before attained level of effectiveness, 99.999%. The Icon then positively pressurizes and controls the room to form a protective shield to prevent the infiltration of airborne contamination.
The Icon Fresh Air Containment Process
For your patients who are affected by an airborne contagious disease, the Icon is also available in a containment mode. Controlling the negative air pressure in the patient's room to prevent the dispersal of airborne contaminants, thus providing additional protection for other members of the household.
