Nanotechnology and its role in raising the efficiency of the internal environment in negative patient isolation rooms in Egyptian hospitals-Evidence-Proofs
Despite the development of nanotechnology materials and the discovery of new properties that have contributed to improving various fields, especially the field of architecture, as it has been able to harness some materials to serve the architectural environment, whether internal or external to buildings, and combat the challenges that hinder the harmony of buildings with the natural external environment. Among the most important of these materials are coatings, which of course have an effective role in buildings, especially healthcare buildings, as nanotechnology has been able to produce materials that help support the internal environment of patient isolation rooms to combat the spread of infection and the spread of bacteria and fungi within that environment, which poses a clear danger to the patient and the medical staff responsible for his care. Despite all this, there is controversy over the effectiveness of these materials in that they are useless and similar to their counterparts from traditional materials. Here comes the role of the research to prove through experiments the effectiveness and validity of nanotechnology materials techniques and their role in combating infection in the internal space of patient isolation rooms, and also combating the heat flow through the outer shell to the patient isolation room, which increases the aggravation of bacterial infection particles in the spaces
