  • The operating theatre maintains a positive pressure of 25 Pascals (Pa)

  • The operating theatre prep room maintains a positive pressure of 27 Pascals (Pa)

  • The operating theatre has a dedicated room pressure control and monitoring system that ensures the room pressure is maintained within the required standard range.

  • The system is equipped with precision pressure regulators that can accurately adjust and maintain the ideal air pressure conditions in the operating theatre.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Electricity

  • In the event of a main power failure, the uninterruptible power supply (UPS)system immediately kicks in to maintain continuous power supply for critical clinical area.

  • Isolated power supply (IPS) system for medical equipment in operating theatre

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Heating, Ventilation and Air conditioning system (HVAC)

Independent HVAC air conditioning system with precise control over temperature, humidity, air purity, and air circulation - this system is separate from the rest of the building's floors

 

 

 

 

  • Vertical laminar airflow, with an extra-wide 2.6m x 2.4m laminar flow ceiling that can fully cover the entire treatment area
  • Sealed automatic sliding door system

  • Automatic airtight swing door system

  • Air filtration system: HEPA-grade filters

  • Over 25 air changes per hour (ACH) in the operating rooms
