BACKGROUND
There are two main purposes of microbial monitoring of the inanimate hospital environment. One of them is to monitor hygiene standards, and the second is to determine the presence of nosocomial pathogens. This study was aimed to investigate the indoor environment of the different departments of a university hospital.
METHODS
The prospective study was conducted in a university hospital, a teaching hospital with 143 beds and 30 ICU beds, and a hospital with 6 different wards in Northern Cyprus. Active air sampling was done by using an air IDEAL 3P device. Air samples were taken at 38 points defined before in different parts of the hospital.
RESULTS
Our results showed a low level of microorganisms' numbers in microbial airborne communities in a university hospital. Moreover, our results indicated that the temperature of the hospital's indoor environment is not significantly related to the airborne microbial community. On the other hand, our results indicate that the Aspergillus species were mostly isolated in the drug preparation room.
CONCLUSION
The studies have shown that one of the causes of hospital infections is the microorganisms entering the airborne microbial communities. In this case, epidemiology and pathogenesis of airborne microbial communities should be understood.
背景
对医院环境中无生命物体的微生物监测有两个主要目的。其一，是监测卫生标准，其二，是确定医院病原体的存在。本研究旨在调查北塞浦路斯一所大学医院不同科室的室内环境。
方法
前瞻性研究在一所大学医院进行，该医院是一所拥有 143 张病床和 30 张 ICU 病床的教学医院，同时也是一所拥有 6 个不同病房的医院。使用空气 IDEAL 3P 设备进行主动空气采样。在医院的不同部位，在预先定义的 38 个点上采集空气样本。
结果
我们的研究结果表明，在一所大学医院的空气中微生物群落中微生物的数量水平较低。此外，我们的研究结果表明，医院室内环境的温度与空气中微生物群落没有显著关系。另一方面，我们的研究结果表明，曲霉菌属主要在药物配制室中被分离。
结论
研究表明，医院感染的原因之一是微生物进入空气中的微生物群落。在这种情况下，应了解空气中微生物群落的流行病学和发病机制。
