The Impact of Comprehensive and Live Air Purification on Health Resource Utilization (HRU)
A conference abstract presented at the Academic Surgical Congress examining the impact of comprehensive and live air purification on health resource utilization in an acute care hospital setting. The abstract presents findings from the St. Luke’s University Health Network research team — the same team whose full 12-month retrospective cohort study of 8,255 patients was subsequently published in the journal Surgery in September 2020. The data examines the relationship between advanced air purification and measurable improvements in patient length of stay, discharge outcomes, and healthcare economics. Presented at the Academic Surgical Congress, 2020. Authors: Wolfe, S.; Brisendine, C.; Levicoff, L.; Eid, S.; Zangari, M.; Ford, F.; Snyder, B.; Moyer, W.; Stawicki, S.P.
