The purpose of this document is to examine the different parameters necessary for an effec-tive upper-room UVGI system and to provide guidelines to healthcare managers, facility designers, engineers, and industrial hygienists on the parameters necessary to install and maintain an effective upper-room UVGI system. These guidelines are consistent with previous CDC healthcare guidelines and expand upon them. This document provides an overview of the current knowledge concerning upper-room UVGI systems and research needs. Information from CDC\/NIOSH-funded laboratory studies and other relevant studies is combined in this report to provide guide-lines for the installation and use of upper-room UVGI systems. Although other pathogenic microorganisms may be killed or inactivated by upper-room UVGI systems, the guidelines were developed for the installation and use of upper-room UVGI systems capable of killing or inactivating surrogates of mycobacteria.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bibliogov","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47598407188631,"sku":"9781288505807","price":1573.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781288505807.webp?v=1775000708","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/environmental-control-for-tuberculosis-basic-upper-room-ultraviolet-germicidal-irradiation-guidelines-for-healthcare-settings-9781288505807","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
