Infectious diseases can spread from one person to another by aerosol droplets. The spread of Tuberculosis (TB), for example, occurs when an otherwise healthy individual inhales a sufficient number of tubercle bacilli that are expelled by a patient infected with pulmonary TB. Thus it spreads rapidly to the healthy persons..http://www.utopia.com.sg/infectious_diseases_treatment_room.html

Utopia Aire Pte Ltd isolation Room is a specially constructed area in a hospital designed for housing patients with an infectious disease in order to prevent the spread of the disease in the hospital.
Whereas the purpose of a clean room is to isolate the outside from the patient, the isolation room is designed the other way round to isolate the patient from the outside. Both the clean room and isolation room may possess several close properties, but they should not be treated as interchangeable.
The construction of a clean room must be made out of hypoallergenic materials, while an isolation room must be planned with the rule of antiseptic application. Due to medical facts that many diseases are spread though aerosol droplets, it is very important for an isolation room to contain the air within it.
The isolation room has to filter any air that is to be vented out, although the air outside does not need to be filtered to be passed in. This is opposite from the clean room where the outside air has to be filtered first before letting it into the room.
The isolation rooms are usually kept under a lower pressure so that the outside air can enter the room. The isolation rooms must not be sealed and air should constantly be flowing into the room through the bottom of the door.
Utopia Aire Isolation Rooms are best suited for infectious diseases treatment rooms where diseases such as Tuberculosis, Influenza, Measles, Smallpox, and Chickenpox are known to be transmitted through the air. These aerosol droplets may be formed from the fluids produced by the infected person body.
These bodily secretions such as blood, sweat, tears, mucus and urine are unavoidable and persistent. Even though they are undesirable, there is no treatment to stop these fluids being released from the body.
Utopia Aire Isolation Rooms come into play in such scenarios to isolate and prevent these infective fluids from being spreading and turning to a massive outbreak and endemic. Even with the isolation rooms in place, staff training is equally important.
This is because usually only specially trained staff has access to enter the isolation room. Strict visiting rules by non-essential personnel are normally prohibited. All personnel who entered the room must go through a decontamination protocol every time they leave the room to prevent pathogens leaving on skin or clothing.
Some isolation rooms use negative air pressure to prevent airborne diseases from escaping the room and infecting other people. A device sucks the air from the outside into the room and then filters the air before pushing it outside.
Isolation room use positive air pressure in situations where a patient’s immune system has already been weakened. Air is filtered such that it is clean enough to be pushed into the room constantly. This helps to keep the infective diseases out of the room.
