Summary

Notes the problem for operating theatres of the inflow of impure air from surrounding areas. Discusses German standard DIN 1946/4. Notes the standard provision of protective positive pressure in the operating theatre. Discusses research which indicates how this protective pressure can be compromised by the opening of operating theatre doors. Supplies the results of tests in graphs. Describes how long-term measurements of particle concentrations demonstrated the effect of the different air supply systems on particle penetration into the patient-adjacent zone caused by the opening of access doors.
