The Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic on Inpatient Hospital Ward Air Ventilation System
The Covid-19 pandemic that hit Indonesia and all over the world had an impact on changes in hospitals’ requirements and standards. Hospital inpatient rooms for treating COVID-19 patients have different architectural requirements from existing standards. The most critical requirement for inpatient rooms is air ventilation, given that the Covid-19 virus spreads through droplets and airflow. This study examines the placement of the intake and exhaust air supply as well as the placement of patient beds in the safest inpatient rooms for patients, nurses, and doctors. To deal with the increasing number of COVID-19 patients being treated in hospitals, many hospitals in a short time had to renovate the inpatient department to be able to treat Covid-19 patients with a fairly high level of health security. This study will compare the existing airflow of the existing inpatient room from one of the hospitals in the city of Bandung and compare it after changing the layout and placement of the intake and exhaust air supply. A comparative study of airflow in the inpatient room will be carried out quantitatively using the Ansys simulation tool. The benefits of this study are expected to be an input for better air ventilation requirements and architectural standards for inpatient rooms at hospitals for types of airborne diseases.
