Enough evidence now exists to suggest that windowless environments in hospitals increase the risk to the patient for a number of reasons. These include a direct influence on his own physiological and psychological state, a lowering of the standard of care by an effect on hospital staff, and increased vulnerability to physical hazards. The psychological ill effects of the intensive therapy unit (ITU) environment on its occupants are well recognised. The aggravation of these effects by the construction of any further windowless units can no longer be regarded as acceptable.
现在有足够的证据表明，医院里无窗环境会因多种原因增加患者的风险。这些原因包括对患者自身生理和心理状态的直接影响、因对医院工作人员产生影响而降低护理标准，以及增加遭受身体伤害的可能性。重症监护病房（ITU）环境对 occupants 的心理不良影响已得到充分认识。因建造更多无窗病房而加剧这些影响的情况再也不能被视为可接受的了。
原文中“occupants”结合语境推测可能是指“住院患者”等相关人员，但此处翻译存疑，因为该词在医学语境中不太常用此含义来指代患者。
