Room Pressure Monitoring in Hospitals – More Than a Device, It’s a Compliance & Safety Necessity

September 1, 2025
In healthcare projects, every design decision directly impacts patient safety. One critical yet often underestimated aspect is room pressure monitoring.
🔹 Why It Matters
Infection Control: Prevents airborne contaminants from leaking into clean zones.
Patient & Staff Safety: Maintains correct airflow direction in critical areas like ICUs, operating rooms, and isolation rooms.
Real-Time Assurance: Provides instant visibility and alarms if pressure integrity is lost.
🔹 What ASHRAE Says
According to ASHRAE Standard 170 – Ventilation of Health Care Facilities, critical rooms must maintain defined pressure relationships:
Positive Pressure – Operating theaters, protective environment rooms.
Negative Pressure – Airborne infection isolation rooms.
The standard requires continuous differential pressure indication so staff can easily verify compliance and ensure safety.
🔹 Beyond Standards
When integrated with Building Management Systems (BMS), pressure monitors become powerful tools for facility teams—supporting accreditation, regulatory compliance, and long-term infection control strategies.
In short, room pressure monitors are not optional—they are guardians of healthcare safety, compliance, and trust
