Description
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) estimates that 99,000 die each year from health-care acquired infections. This includes 13,000 who die from infections acquired during surgical procedures. This article on controlling contaminants in operating rooms asks: What if operating rooms are designed to cleanroom standards? The authors say the design principles are similar but cleanroom technology has proven effective in virtually eliminating human particle contamination.
