Myth: Hand Sanitizer Stops Colds And The Flu
Medical and Health Care Text Are 1: At imperdiet dui accumsan sit amet nulla facilisi morbi tempus. Enim nec dui nunc mattis enim ut. In dictum non consectetur a erat nam at lectus. Purus sit amet volutpat consequat mauris.
The Cause
SICK PATIENTS: Considering the sheer volume of sick people who pass through a doctor’s office in the average day, it’s no wonder that health care workers and support staff often exhibit higher than average absenteeism rates due to inllness. Just one cough or sneeze from a patient can have droplet nuclei remain airborne for hours and travel up to 160 ft throughout the office or building.
BIOAEROSOLS: Exposure to bioaerosols (e.g., organic dust consisting of pathogenic or non-pathogenetic live or dead bacteria and fungi, viruses, bacterial endotoxins, mycotoxins, peptidoglycans, high molecular weight (HMW) allergens, pollen, plant fibres, etc. are associated with a wide range of adverse health effects, including contagious infectious diseases, acute toxic effects and cancer. Respiratory symptoms and lung function impairment are perhaps the most immediate and visible effects of bioaerosols on health, and for man, a key reason to take a closer look at their indoor air quality.
SICK BUIDLING SYNDROM (SBS): also called Tight Building Syndrom, or Building Related Illness, these health effects result in absenteeism and low productivity.>br>>br>
Buildings aren’t “sick,” but their conditions can cause the occupants to become sick. Health problems are usually due to: Particulates – airborne dust and allergens; Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) – such as formaldehyde from bulding materials, carpets, and furniture; Biologicals – bacteria, mold, and mildew coming from air-handling systems, furniture, and carpets.
Symptoms Include: Headaches, Fatigue, Congestion, Coughing, Sneezing, Nausea, Irritated Eyes, Itchy Skin, Trouble Breathing, Trouble Focusing Or Concentrating
The Solution
7 stage filtration is much more effective than 3 or 4 stage filtration systems which many products use, because certain pollutants require specific filtration technology to either filter or destroy them. A Platinum Z System uses 7 stages to filter and destroy many harmful pollutants other products cannot such as viruses, germs, bacteria, mold, bio-aerosols chemicals and gasses
Before You Buy
Before you buy air purifiers for your medical, healthcare or dental practice, make sure it meets the CDC’s Requirements!
Requirement: An air purifier for use in a medical, healthcare or dental outpatient facility should be capable of performing a minimum of 6 air changes per hour (see table below). This means it will clean the full volume of air in the room or area it is being used 6 times per hour.
Platinum Z Systems air purifiers are high volume air purifiers which move more air faster then many prducts on the market. The Platinum Z XXL will do 6 air changes per hour in spaces up to 500 sq ft. the Platinum Z XL will do 6 air changes per hour in up to 300 sq ft. It’s important to know that when air purifier manufactures market and advertise square footage, it is based on 2 air changes per hour; as that is typical for housold use and not medical or dental facility use. So it is important to understand that you would need 3 of those products per advertised area in order to achieve the CDC requirement of 6 air changes per hour. The more air changes per hour, the better job the air purifier will do.
