Contents Module I: The committee CTN 171 Quality interior AENOR is developing within the SC3-GT4 a pre-standard for "Evaluation and Validation of controlled environment rooms in hospitals" where areas are classified and defined parameters, test methods, types of validation, and schedule criteria. This module will develop the chapter on areas with very high and high risk.

11.00 - 12.00 h. MODULE II. BIOSECURITY IN OPERATING ROOMS & CRITICAL AREAS.

Contents Module II: Establishing criteria off implementation, testing methodology and a schedule to validate the correct operation of the controlled environment rooms that are one in hospitals. This conference reflects the share of competences Biosecurity Specialists Preventive Medicine and Public Health. The document submitted as part of the UNE EN - Working AENOR 3.4.

 


12.00 - 13.00 h. MODULE III. DESIGNS AND CONSTRUCTION OF UNITS OF ISOLATION ENDEMIC IN AREAS OF AVIAN INFLUENZA. 

Contents Module III: The WHO Europe is involved in projects for the renewing of health care facilities designated for the management of cases of avian influenza and other highly dangerous pathogens. Azerbaijan is one of the states most at risk in the Caucasian region where outbreaks of avian influence were reported. Iin the summer of 2007 the WHO commissioned the author of this paper to plan an isolation ward in an existing lumg clinic in Baku. The Project started in July 2007 and finished at the end of September 07. Azeri authorities considered the “Science Research Institute of Lung Diseases” the place where an isolation station should be built. Based on a detailed analysis at the beginning of the visits, the author determined the it was possible although many changes and investments were necessary in remodelling the building, installations and medical equipment. Luckily the structure was solid and the space was sufficient. The new room structure and air flow control principles were based on the WHO interim infection control guidelines dating from 2007 and the German Standard VDI 2167, which set the requirements for isolation rooms with negative air pressure. The remodelling work necessary to fulfil the demands included disassembly and removal works as well as the new electrical installations and air conditioning, and the construction of a suspended ceiling to accommodate the installations and properly close and seal the whole. The funds were released in October 2007. The unit is intended to open in autumn 08. The paper describes and illustrates with images the planning procedures and requirements as well as a general impression of the booming city of Baku.

 

13.00 - 15.00 h. Lunch in the Restaurant of the Doctor´s Official college of Barcelona

 

 

15.00 - 15.45 h. MODULE IV.  OPERATING ROOMS OF LAMINAR-FLOW: FROM DESIGN TO THE FIRST PATIENT.

Contents Module IV: Will explain step by step and in detail, from the design of an operating room laminar flow,all this describing the construction works of HVAC,  until the first patient.

 


15.45 a 16.30 h. MODULE V.  SPECIFIC FACILICIES FOR OPERATING ROOMS.

Contents Module V: Architectural design of the various circuits of an operating room (ideal circuit), electrical installation, fire facilities, medical gases. New materials and new trends. It will also explain the maintenance of operating rooms and the process of carrying out works in surgical block from the start of the demolition until it can be used again.

 


 

16.30 - 17.15 h. MÓDULE VI. BIOSECURITY BIOHAZARD LABORATORIES: Laboratories containment (BL3) and maximum containment (BL4).

 

Contents Module VI: The University Clinic of Navarra it has a laboratory of Biosecurity, which there allows the managing of biological agents who cause potentially lethal diseases for the human being. It is a question of one of the first clinical laboratories of this type put in march in Spain. Besides the measures of biological safety needed in this type of facilities, the laboratory of the Clinic of the University of Navarra incorporates systems added to guarantee the containment of the pathogenic agents inside the enclosure.  The main focus of this conference are secondary barriers (relating to the proper location and design of specialized) and tertiary barriers (structural design of the premises or building) in reference to biohazard labs, mainly relating to containment ( BL3) and maximum containment (BL4). Doctor of pharmacy, specialist in Microbiology and Parasitología, consultant and The Director of the Service of clinical Microbiology of the University Clinic of Navarre, contracted Teacher doctor and assistant director of the Department of Microbiology and Parasitología of the Faculty(Power) of Medicine of the University of Navarre.
