Hi Ruth,
Many thanks for your reply.The primary filters are inspected and changed more frequently….months as opposed to years as with the HEPA filters.
best wishes

Thanks Cathy & Anne for your replies,
My gut says to air sample as an extra marker of the quality of the ventilation system but I expect our microbiologist will also recommend that air sampling is not required.
many thanks

We are the same as Cathy and Maureen. In Beacon we previously used the CX powder but changed practice several years ago.

Miscellaneous 7 years, 7 months ago
Hi Everyone,
Is it a requirement to air sample theatres following HEPA filter change? The guidance documents I`ve looked at ( HTMs & ” commissioning & monitoring theatres) don’t advise air sampling following “routine filter” change so is change of HEPA filters considered routine or not considering they are only changed every 5 years or so? -

Hi Fiona,
We don’t use CX powder either….chlorhexidine/ skinisan ( pharmacy choice) antiseptic washes & nasal mupiricin.

Hi All, I am just wondering how are you all evaluating the training you deliver? We are looking for new ideas. We have done questionnaires previously with little feedback received on the training, more focused on the location etc.
Many thanks
