Indoor Air Quality by the Numbers

  • Patient Icon
    1 in 31 patients have an HAI

    On any given day, 1 in 31 hospital patients in the United States has at least one healthcare-associated infection (HAI), reinforcing the importance of comprehensive infection prevention strategies.

  • Surgical Site SSI Infection icon
    300,000 SSIs annually

    An estimated 300,000 surgical site infections (SSIs) occur each year in the United States, making them among the most common healthcare-associated infections.

  • 24/7 support for patients

    Healthcare facilities operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, requiring continuous environmental performance and reliable indoor air quality management.

  • 22,000,000 healthcare professionals

    Millions of healthcare professionals work in hospitals and clinical environments every day, underscoring the importance of healthier workplaces that support staff wellbeing, resilience, and operational continuity.

Why Indoor Air Quality Matters in Healthcare

Infection Prevention & Environmental Safety

Indoor air quality is an important component of a comprehensive infection prevention strategy. Air purification, environmental monitoring, and engineering controls help healthcare facilities support cleaner indoor environments while reducing airborne contaminants in occupied spaces. 

Patient Confidence & Experience

Patients and their families expect healthcare environments that demonstrate visible commitments to safety, cleanliness, and quality of care. Better indoor air quality helps create more comfortable care environments while reinforcing confidence in the facility. 

Workforce Health & Resilience

Healthcare professionals spend long hours caring for patients in demanding environments. Better indoor air quality helps support healthier workplaces, reduce environmental exposures, and strengthen workforce resilience by contributing to environments that help minimize operational disruptions caused by illness. 

Operational Performance

Healthcare facilities must maintain environmental performance around the clock. Continuous monitoring, optimized HVAC operation, and real-time environmental intelligence help facilities maintain consistent indoor conditions while supporting uninterrupted clinical operations.
