Protected environments in cancer chemotherapy: design and function of a large unit
Abstract
The construction of a new hospital building permitted the design of a new protected environment unit. The design and operating procedures of this unit are described. Microbiological monitoring has been conducted using air sampling, floor sampling, and settling plates. Microbial contamination is substantially lower in the protected environment unit than in comparable locations elsewhere in the hospital.
