Abstract

An operating theater comprising a chamber closed at the top by a ceiling surrounded by a plenum chamber provided with ducts through which sterile air is drawn from outside the chamber and discharged vertically downwards from tubes of porous textile material having along the bottom of each section inserts of a knitted fabric of greater air permeability than the remaining tube wall to give directional control of the air flow, a rail being mounted on the underside of the plenum chamber from which are suspended on three sides removable interchangeable panels extending from the rail to a floor and on the fourth side a curtain to give access for an operating table and patient, with means for extracting contaminated air from the patient.
