CORAD Systems
Complete
Operating Room Air Delivery
Medical Air
Solutions has developed three (3) CORAD systems for surgical suites.
Each system is designed for the ascending classes as defined in the AIA (2003)
Guidelines for Design and Construction of Hospitals and Health Care
Facilities. The definitions of these classes are:
Class
A (formerly
Class XX)
"Provides for minor surgical procedures performed under topical,
local or regional anesthesia without pre-operative sedation. Excluded are
intravenous, spinal and epidural routes; these methods are appropriate for
Class B and Class C facilities."
Class B
(formerly Class V)
"Provides for minor or major surgical procedures performed in
conjunction with oral, parenteral or intravenous sedation or under analgesic or
disocclusive drugs."
Class C
(formerly Class I)
"Provides for major surgical procedures that require general or
regional block anesthesia and support of bodily functions."
The CORAD
systems are designed to significantly reduce the threat of secondary (nosocomial)
infections by continuously providing ultra-pure HEPA (99.99%) filtered
air over the sterile field via vertical laminar flow diffusers that provide a
very high volume of air at very low velocity. These systems are a step above
the older linear slot wall diffusers which provide horizontal air flow that can,
by induction, move pathogens from the outer perimeter of the surgical suite into
the air flow area of the sterile field.
All systems
provide for the monitoring of positive pressure in the O.R. which is an absolute
necessity in maintaining a protective environment. Our CORAD systems
incorporate indirect upper room ultraviolet germicidal irradiation that
kills or deactivates pathogens in the upper room atmosphere while not putting
staff or the patient in the direct path of the UV-C.
For Class A Surgical Suites
The
CORAD A
A laminar airflow system for a
small
operating room.
CORAD A System
(Aluminum case with SS
laminar airflow grille)

Consisting of: two (2)
AS900GC-PP-UV (48 x 24) Certified 99.99% HEPA w/ SS laminar flow
diffuser system with digital controllers. One (1) Room temperature,
pressure, relative humidity touch screen monitor. Air provided will be
by motor-blower fans driven by the two (2) AS900GC units positioned
bilaterally over the surgical table to ensure correct laminar flow CFM
delivery for 15 ACH for a room size of
16x18x9 (2,592 cubic feet).

a sealed ceiling!
Price of a sealed
cleanroom operating room ceiling of 288 sq. ft is additional.
