Natural ventilation can be one of the effective environmental measures to reduce the risk of spread of infections in health care. This guideline first defines ventilation and then natural ventilation. It explores the design requirements for natural ventilation in the context of infection control, describing the basic principles of design, construction, operation and maintenance for an effective natural ventilation system to control infection in health-care settings. 606 $aVentilation 606 $aInfection$xPrevention 606 $aHealth facilities$xHeating and ventilation 606 $aAir$xMicrobiology 606 $aVentilation$xmethods 606 $aHealth Facilities$xstandards 606 $aAir Microbiology 606 $aInfection Control 606 $aVentilation 615 0$aVentilation. 615 0$aInfection$xPrevention. 615 0$aHealth facilities$xHeating and ventilation. 615 0$aAir$xMicrobiology. 615 2$aVentilation$xmethods. 615 2$aHealth Facilities$xstandards. 615 2$aAir Microbiology. 615 2$aInfection Control. 615 2$aVentilation. 676 $a628.5/3 701 $aAtkinson$b James$0144842 712 02$aWorld Health Organization. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910140813103321 996 $aNatural ventilation for infection control in health-care settings$92279559 997 $aUNINA
