          • Quarto (sala) de pressão negativa
        • Additional fields of expertise
        • Definition(s)
          • Para evitar a propagação de um vírus, os pacientes hospitalizados são tratados em salas especiais, as Salas/ Os Quartos de Pressão Negativa. Um sistema de ventilação renova o ar o tempo inteira e a pressão atmosférica é mantida mais baixa do que o resto do hospital. O objetivo é impedir que o ar contaminado saia e o vírus se espalhe. O resto da sala é mantido hermético para manter a pressão negativa: portas, canos de água e interruptores. Existem duas antessalas. Na primeira entram os funcionários do hospital e vestem o equipamento de proteção completo: protetores de sapatos, luvas cirúrgicas, roupão à prova de água, máscaras e toucas. Deve ser evitado qualquer contacto com os lábios, olhos, catarro e gotículas de espirro ou tosse. Após o paciente receber o tratamento, os funcionários saem pela segunda antessala. Agulhas, roupas e tudo o que entrou em contacto com o paciente é removido e incinerado. Sapo Lifestyle - by Felipe Tomasi
