New air handling units sought
Derriford Hospital is seeking to revamp two of its examination rooms for cardiovascular patients as part of a planning application for upgrades.
It wants to refurbish two ‘cath labs’ within the hospital, which contain diagnostic imaging equipment where doctors perform minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat a wide range of cardiovascular issues and ancillary spaces.
Plans also include the installation of a new plant deck with two air handling units on the level 7 roof, adjacent to the endoscopy department.
Air handling units circulate, filter, heat, cool and humidify air to maintain strict hygiene, infection control and patient comfort.
