CPAC BIM drives medical innovation COVID-19 response

CPAC BIM drives construction innovation Supporting the medical community Holds solution for isolation and sterilization Answering the new wave of COVID-19 transmission

A new virus outbreakCOVID-19 It is creating concern for all sectors. Especially numbersNumber of people infectedThat increased faster than the first Timely problem solving To stop the spread of COVID-19 It is a big problem that both the government and the medical community have to solve. Not even the private sector is ready to support and create innovation to help cope.

Mr. Wirakorn Saithep, CPAC BIM Director, Construction Products and Materials Co., Ltd. (CPAC) Revealed that the company has brought knowledge and construction technology to further develop to solve medical solutions to help medical personnel. In an urgent situation Which this problem must be done immediately Therefore, the potential in many areas has been applied to help medical personnel or public health agencies Under working conditions Speed ​​with Good Enough Quality

Medical Solution by CPAC BIM is to design, build and renovate separate and sterile rooms for medical use. Its strength is the introduction of Digital and Construction Technology to help in planning and construction process. To ensure the safety of doctors and room users And can also be built quickly Budget control At present, two rooms for isolation and control of respiratory infections have been developed:

–

Ready-to-install infectious disease isolation clinic (Acute Respiration Infection Outdoor Clinic, ARI Outdoor Clinic) There is a divided area in the area for screening, testing and collection of infection, which separates the path between doctor and patient. For the safety of medical personnel Combined with the adoption of negative pressure and positive pressure ventilation technology This is to prevent airborne pathogens from flowing into the area. To prevent the germs from spreading to personnel and other patients in the hospital.

Separation room for negative pressure infection (Airborne Infectious Isolation Room, AIIR) Ready-to-install design. The working principle uses negative pressure technology. To control the outside pathogens entering the room And if there are germs in the room The air filter kills germs before they are released to the outside. As well as limit the circulating area of ​​pathogens Therefore, we are confident that the medical staff room is safe, non-infectious, discharged air, disease-free and environmentally friendly. Which has been completed at Saraburi Hospital and Wachira Hospital

“Covid-19 outbreak Continues to happen So we can’t wait to let this pandemic happen further, believing that the two innovations that CPAC BIM invented will bring tremendous medical benefits. Because it responds to the speed of construction to keep pace with the increasing number of infected people And most importantly, it has a standard that medical personnel can use it safely, ”said Mr. Wirakorn.

Asst. Prof. Anusangjit Somsem, Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Medicine, Vajira Hospital, Navamindradhiraj University, said that The epidemic situation of COVID-19 is preventing medical workers from getting the infection and spreading it to others in hospitals. It is important and urgently needed to stop the epidemic. The hospital is supported by the private sector, namely Prudential Life Insurance and CPAC BIM, bringing their expertise to develop a Modified Version of Negative Pressure Isolation Room which is an innovation of Thai people. Answer the question of the limited time Budget is not very high And meet the standards of the Ministry of Public Health and the Department of Medicine

“COVID-19 is like a tsunami of an epidemic. The doctor looked at how to do it in a timely manner. Creating an isolation chamber for negative pressure infections It takes at least 1 year, which we can’t wait, but the Modified Version CPAC BIM has presented to the hospital. There is a possibility Meets the speed and budget and meets the standards of the Negative Pressure Room, ”said Asst. Prof. Anusaeng.
