Correlation between a real-time bioparticle detection device and a traditional microbiological active air sampler monitoring air quality in an operating room during elective arthroplasty surgery: a prospective feasibility study
Low FBP ≥ 3 μm/50 dm3 measured by BAMS indicates low CFU/m3; conversely, high FBP ≥ 3 μm/50 dm3 indicates high CFU/m3. Real-time measurements of FBP ≥ 3 μm/50 dm3 can be used as a supplement to CFU/m3 monitoring OR air bacterial load.
