Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Aerus air sterilization
Aerus air sterilization system will be used in an operating room, in addition to routine room air filtration
Functioning Aerus air filtration/sterilization
Two units of Aerus air sterilization system will be used in each operating room, and each will be set to "high." Units used for the trial will be modified internally to be active and will be sealed to prevent operating room personnel from opening the system and determining a unit's status.
Conventional air handling
Only routine room air filtration will be used in an operation room.
Deactivated Aerus air filtration/sterilization
Two units of Aerus air sterilization system will be used in each operating room, and each will be set to "high." Units used for the trial will be modified internally to be inactivated and will be sealed to prevent operating room personnel from opening the system and determining a unit's status. Units will be inactivated by removing the activated carbon, high-efficiency particulate filter, and ionization chamber. However, the fan will remain active as will the "run" lights.
