Oklahoma Hospital Takes Ultraviolet Germicidal Irradiation to the Next Level - Lights used for nightly operating-room sterilization

摘要

Muskogee Community Hospital, a rural, 45-bed hospital in Muskogee, Okla., may seem to be an unlikely place for ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) to take an evolutionary leap. However, the unassuming, 2-year-old, 100,000- sq ft hospital is using UVGI in a unique way that may someday be adopted by many other health-care facilities.
