Vancouver General Hospital Operating Room
CLEANSUITE® System –
Creating the most efficient and effective ORs
Vancouver General Hospital, Vancouver, BC
The installation was completed in the fall of 2016.
This is Canada’s first CLEANSUITE installation used in a Hybrid Operating Room.
The CLEANSUITE Unit consisted of a fully engineered modular assembled ceiling system.
This included the LED lighting, structural supports for booms, electrical hookup, fire protection, plumbing and air distribution.
The single large diffuser provides the laminar flow for the operating area and incorporates HEPA filters with gel seals.
In addition to the pre-engineered product, the installation time is a fraction of traditional systems allowing a shorter construction time.
The operation room incorporates not only the ability to do surgical procedures but also to do medical imaging so the patient does not need to be moved.
The weather in Vancouver is cold and wet and this provides a dry comfortable spot to meet and greet some of the smartest people in scrubs.
