Hi,
Just a Friday afternoon question:
Can anyone provide me with evidence in regards to how long we should leave a room prior to cleaning an airborne precaution room
o In our local procedure we have 2 hours
However, I thought that had been decreased to 30minutes
o I’m aware of the airchanges etc in our negative pressure rooms but this query has come from our Emergency Department.
Any help greatly appreciatedRegards

VICHi Janine,
The time to remove airborne contaminants from a room is dependent on the number of air changes per hour (ACHR). There is a handy table in the Victorian Guidelines for the classification and design of isolation rooms in health care facilities (2007) on page 21 “Air changes per hour (ACHR) and time in minutes required for various airborne contaminant removal efficiencies” (snapshot of the table below) which will help answer how long you should leave a room before entering the room without appropriate PPE (i.e. P2 respirator). The link to this document is here: https://www2.health.vic.gov.au/about/publications/policiesandguidelines/Guidelines-for-the-classification-and-design-of-isolation-rooms-in-health-care-facilities-Victorian-Advisory-Committee-on-Infection-Control-2007
[cid:image002.png@01D3A1BE.A64738E0]
Note that the room does not need to be “cleared” before cleaning can commence. The cleaners can be wearing appropriate PPE while cleaning the room during this time. This will reduce the turn-around time for the room if cleaning takes place during the “airborne contaminant removal” period.
My understanding, at least in Victoria, of the timeframes you quote were in relation to the exposure follow up time period after someone had been in a room/area with measles. We used to follow up measles exposures for a period of 2 hours after the person had left an area, but this was reduced to 30 minutes some years ago.

The Centers for Disease Control. Guidelines for Preventing the Transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Health-Care Settings, MMWR Recommendations and Reports. 2005; 54 (17):1-141 has a good table.
It depends on the air exchanges as to when its free of 99.9% of contaminants.
With 12 to 15 air exchanges we say 30 minutes before its safe for staff to enter and clean without wearing a mask.[cid:image001.gif@01D3A1C1.C6529FA0]

HI Derrick,
I suggest you look at the Australian Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of Infection in Healthcare, Section 3.1.3 Routine management of the physical environment. Both mental health & aged care are considered as healthcare facilities so the standards apply. https://www.safetyandquality.gov.au/our-work/infection-prevention-and-control/guidelines/australian-guidelines-prevention-and-control-infection-healthcare-2019Regards,
