BACKGROUND: Proper air ventilation and filtration in Operating Rooms (OR) are two prevention measures to avoid Surgical Site Infections (SSI), which cause increase of hospital staying, cost and death. For identifying how system ventilation variations may impact on the quality of OR air, ad hoc researches need be conducted. The aim is to study how a mobile air particle filtering system may impact on the air quality of the OR when placed in two different positions.

For identifying how system ventilation variations may impact on the quality of OR air, ad hoc researches need be conducted.
