Economic Effects of Air Purification Technology on Healthcare-Acquired Infection Costs: A Study of Simulated Implementation across Low-and-Middle-Income Regions of the Globe

A peer-reviewed study published in the International Journal of Academic Medicine examining the economic effects of advanced air purification technology on healthcare-acquired infection costs through simulated implementation across low- and middle-income regions of the globe. The study models the potential financial impact of deploying LifeAire-class air purification technology in healthcare facilities across diverse economic contexts, demonstrating the broader global applicability of the infection control and cost reduction outcomes documented in U.S.-based clinical studies. Published in International Journal of Academic Medicine, Volume 7, 2021, pages 285-286. Authors: Kelley, K.C.; Schlener, S.D.; Levicoff, L.; Stawicki, S.P.

Installation of an Advanced Air Purification System in a Hospital Setting Led to Improved Environmental and Clinical Outcomes

A peer-reviewed study published in RenaRum examining the environmental and clinical effects of installing LifeAire’s advanced air purification system in a hospital setting. The study measured changes in airborne and surface pathogen burden, volatile organic compound levels, and clinical outcome metrics following LifeAire installation, contributing to the growing body of peer-reviewed operational evidence supporting advanced air purification as a clinical intervention in acute care hospital environments.

Novel In-Line Gas Filter Demonstrates Improved Blastocyst Development and Extended Service Life – A Multi-Center Study.

An independent multicenter prospective randomized trial published in Fertility and Sterility comparing blastocyst development outcomes using two commercially available in-line gas filters for IVF incubators across four independent laboratories over a six-month period. The study compared the Aire~LifeLine in-line gas filter against the CODA Xtra filter, with pronuclear embryos cultured to Days 5 and 6 using laboratory-specific protocols. Results demonstrated improved blastocyst development rates with the Aire~LifeLine, as well as extended filter service life. The study provides independent, third-party evidence supporting the clinical effectiveness of the Aire~LifeLine for IVF incubator gas filtration. Published in Fertility and Sterility, 2021.
