The ward of Huoshenshan Hospital is designed with internal negative pressure. What are the advantages of this design?

COVID-19 patients will be officially admitted to Huoshenshan Hospital in the next few days, and? Internal negative pressure? This word is so novel that we can't help asking, is there any benefit in this design?

In recent days, Covid-19 has been hanging on our minds, which makes us nervous every day, especially the people in Wuhan. Some patients even have symptoms, but they can't be hospitalized because there are not enough hospital beds, but there is good news these days. On the morning of February 2nd, it was officially delivered to Huoshenshan Hospital, and on February 3rd, patients with pneumonia in Covid-19 will be officially admitted.

The construction of Vulcan Mountain Hospital took only ten days, which was a race against time. The design of the hospital was also completed in a short time. The design team took out the design scheme in just 5 hours, and completed the design drawing in less than 24 hours. Because of the tight time, it was basically design, construction, modification and adjustment.

The negative pressure ward we heard means that each ward is equipped with a fresh air purifier, so that the air pressure in the ward is lower than that outside the ward, which can ensure that the air will not spread out and reduce the infection rate of hospital patients to the external environment. Huoshenshan Hospital is also further improving its medical facilities, and the staff of Hubei Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention have also conducted detailed tests on the wards.

in the video, we can see that each ward is equipped with two dedicated beds, and there is a separate small window and a glass window in the room, which is convenient for medical staff to take things. The ward is equipped with air conditioning, ventilation facilities and disinfection equipment. It is also equipped with an independent toilet with built-in facilities such as toilet, washbasin, water heater and shower, which can be said to be very comprehensive. Although the facilities are complete, the installation is very simple, but as a temporary life-saving hospital, the safety of medical staff and the treatment of patients are the most important. After all, no one wants to live in it if they can recover.

do you have anything to add to the design of the ward of Vulcan Mountain Hospital? Welcome to leave a message for discussion ~
