چکیده
Abstract Introduction Airborne bacteria are a major source of wound contamination during penile prosthesis surgery. 80% found in the after surgery comes from air. Crystalline ultraviolet C (C-UVC) filter units were designed to disinfect and recirculate air operating room (OR). Objective We assess particle-reducing capacity C-UVC highly controlled setting office center Methods A particle counter was deployed positive-pressure standard HVAC system measure total viable counts (TPC). HEPA/Ultraviolet recirculation (HUAIRS) purchased placed into ORs both locations. Weekly count experiments performed for 6 months OR settings. unit kept 4 meters door settings used near operative field. Results After weekly office-based procedure collection data using an 83.4% reduction seen at 5 micron level. Initially, reads 14,143 particles implementation HUAIRS, 2,299 prosthesis. In center, same employed. The initial dropped 81.74% 6,143 1,122 once HUAIRS Conclusions have shown be capable significantly reducing TPC setting.
