Laminar Airflow Systems is an essential elements of modern modular operation theaters (OTs), helping to maintain a sterile environment and reduce the risk of post-operative infections.
They establish a “clean zone” over the operating table, protecting the patient and surgical instruments from contamination.

Factors such as the size of the OT, the location of the operating table, and the type of surgical procedures performed must be considered while designing the system.

Laminar Airflow Systems in OTs must comply with strict standards and guidelines, such as those set by organizations like NABH.
