Finding F-1407
“Meanwhile, the indoor bacterial concentration of LAF systems decreased by 40.05 (95% CI: -55.52, -24.58) CFU/m3 compared to that of conventional HVAC systems.”
Structure
- Factor
- Airborne bacteria
- Intervention
- HVAC systems
- Setting
- hospital room
- Study design
- systematic review and meta-analysis of indoor bioaerosols in hospital rooms: culturable bacteria and fungi compared between rooms without a heating, ventilation and air conditioning system, rooms with a conventional system and rooms with an enhanced system, pooled with random-effects models and assessed with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality checklist (class 2)
- Effect
- difference 40.05 (-55.52–-24.58)
- Caveat
- a pooled estimate of the review; the difference is printed as negative and the estimate is recorded as its size with the direction in its own field
