The final air-supply system is one of the most important design decisions in an operating theater. Two commonly discussed options are a large laminar airflow ceiling and multiple terminal HEPA diffusers. Both systems can deliver filtered air into an operating room, but they are not equivalent. They differ in protected coverage, airflow distribution, ceiling coordination,
Positive pressure is one of the most frequently specified environmental requirements for an operating theater. It helps establish directional airflow from the operating room toward adjacent spaces when doors are closed, reducing the uncontrolled entry of air from less clean areas. However, positive pressure is not created by the wall panels themselves, nor is it
