Abstract
This collection of reviews and studies highlights the critical role of ventilation systems and indoor air quality in controlling airborne infection transmission in healthcare. It emphasizes how inadequate systems contribute to pathogen spread, particularly post COVID-19. Keymitigation strategies include advanced filtration (HVAC and portable purifiers), UV germicidal irradiation (UVGI), and optimized airflow designs. Research also explores diverse air disinfection technologies, evaluates existing ventilation standards, and utilizes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling to optimize room design. The overarching theme stresses the importance of integrated engineering and administrative controls for maintaining safe hospital environments and enhancing resilience against future outbreaks.
