Hi Johanna

Thanks so much for that. I havent been able to find anything specific to corridors in those guidelines though either just me having a moment or it could possibly be a different interpretation..

Kind regards

Dear Brains trust

I was wondering if anyone has information/references relating to having HEPA filters installed in OR complex corridors. This is something that has been raised here as being required to ensure compliance with AS: 4187 but I have been unable to find anything to support it. We do have covered case carts to transport our RMDs so we are a bit confused about the need for all of the corridors to be HEPA filtered as well.

Any help would be gratefully received!

Kind regards
Mary
