What Types of Ventilation Systems Are Suitable for Cancer Patients?
Several ventilation systems can be employed to ensure a safe and healthy environment for cancer patients:
1. Mechanical Ventilation: These systems use fans and ductwork to circulate air within a building. They can include HEPA filters to remove particulate matter and pathogens effectively. 2. Natural Ventilation: This involves the use of windows, vents, and other openings to allow fresh air to circulate. While natural ventilation can be effective, it may not always be sufficient in highly polluted areas. 3. Mixed-Mode Ventilation: Combining mechanical and natural ventilation, this approach can provide the benefits of both systems, ensuring optimal air quality and comfort.
