VA DESIGN GUIDEAMBULATORY CARE INVASIVE PROCEDURES SUITE GUIDE PLATE 4-1

Equipment Plan NotesAmbulatory Surgery Operating Room (General & Topical Anesthesia)

Note 1 The surgical light fixtures are (CC) unless the VAMC chooses to select a specific surgical light fixture duringdesign development. If the VAMC chooses the fixtures, they should be either (VV) or (CF). Coordinationinvolving structural support, utility connections, and other details are the responsibility of the designer.

Note 2 Nominal thickness of walls should be shown as 8 inches through design development. This is based uponthe need to accommodate a variety of panel boards, exhaust air ducts, and miscellaneous elements ofconstruction that require a thicker partition than in other areas of a clinic or hospital building. Partitions otherthan the operating room enclosure should be shown nominally as 6 inches through design developmentunless a special requirement dictates otherwise.

Note 3 Inclusion of x-ray shielding, consisting of a lead membrane in the partition, lead lined doors, and leadedglass observation windows, is determined on a project basis. The need for radiation protection is basedupon the degree to which portable x-ray equipment is to be used in each of the operating rooms, andcontinuous occupancy of adjacent spaces. Once it is determined that a lead membrane is required, theexact location of that membrane and details related to it are the designer's responsibility.

Note 4 An automatic door opener is to be provided in the corridor at the doors between the operating room and theperipheral corridor. A tread type of opener is permitted; however, a wall-mounted type of automatic dooropener is preferred.

Note 5 The ceiling mounted utility columns may be one of two types: articulating (as indicated on this guide plateseries), or retractable (telescoping). (See guide plate series Ambulatory Surgery Operating Room for agraphic representation of retractable utility columns used in a 450 square foot operating room.) The VAMCmust decide which type of utility column to use during the design development phase of the project. If achoice is made at this point, the utility columns may be (VV), (CF) or (CC). If the VAMC declines to make atimely decision, then the utility columns will be (CC). Coordination involving structural support, utilityconnections, and other details is the responsibility of the designer.

Note 6 Modular Casework - The VAMC has the option of choosing modular casework in lieu of built-in casework.However, this decision must be made during the design development phase of the project. If modularcasework that is wall mounted is selected by the VAMC, the partitions must be designed to support thecasework. It should be noted that the standard studs found in the master specifications are insufficient tocarry this added weight; therefore, the equipment manufacturer's recommendations for supporting partitionsshould be followed where appropriate.

Note 7 Clocks - For more information regarding clocks in the operating room see MCS, Division 16.

Note 8 See VA Handbook 7610 Chapter 286 of the Equipment Guide List for additional equipment not shown.

VA DESIGN GUIDEAMBULATORY CARE INVASIVE PROCEDURES SUITE GUIDE PLATE 4-1

Utility Plan NotesAmbulatory Surgery Operating Room (General & Topical Anesthesia)

Note 1 Exhaust Air Grilles - Provide a minimum of two exhaust air grilles in this operating room. If only two grillesare provided, locate them opposite from each other. Where there are more than two exhaust grilles, centerthem on each of the walls of the operating room. The bottom of each exhaust air grille is to be seven inchesabove finished floor. See the HVAC Design Manual for additional information.

Note 2 Electrical Power/Ground Module - Place a separate power/ground module near the center of each wall ofthe operating room. Each power/ground module is to have 3 duplex power receptacles and 1 groundingreceptacles. These power/ground receptacles are to be located 18 inches above finished floor. See theElectrical Design Manual for additional information.

Note 3 Articulating Utility Column - Provide connections on each utility column as delineated in Chapter 286,Equipment Guide List.

Note 4 HVAC Controllers - Provide one of the two following systems for controlling room temperature and humidityin the design of the mechanical system. The first system is indicated on the utility plan .It involves locating athermostat, a humidistat, and a recorder in the operating room. The second system involves temperatureand humidity sensors located in the operating room, with a recorder located remotely. See the HVACDesign Manual for Hospital Projects and MCS, Division 15 for additional information.

Note 5 Video Monitors - The increasing use of fluoroscopy in surgical procedures has increased the need for videomonitors located in the vicinity of the "sterile field". With x-ray film soon to be replaced by digitized imagesdisplayed on a video screen, the use of these monitors in surgery will increase even further. This emergingtechnology is called "PACS" (Picture Archiving and Communications System). The VAMC has a choice tomake regarding these monitors. A set of video monitors can be mounted on a cart, or the set of videomonitors can be mounted on an articulating arm that is suspended from the ceiling. The latter concept isshown on these guideplates. In either case, the A/E is to determine utility requirements for the video systemselected by the VAMC and the VHA program official. These requirements include: power supply;provisions for grounding of the monitors; communications linkage to other areas of the clinic. See ReflectedCeiling Plan Note 9 for a concept that links the Frozen Section area of the clinical laboratory with the videomonitors in each of the operating rooms.

Note 6 Isolated Power Unit - Each of the isolated power units is to serve two adjacent walls. For this reason theunits are to be located near the corners of the room and diagonally opposite from each other. See ElectricalDesign Manual for Hospital Projects, Chapter 11, for more information regarding isolated power.

Note 7 Computer Terminal - Utility requirements for the in-room computer terminal are to be determined by theVAMC based upon the computer system to be used. This information is to be given to the A/E forincorporation into the construction documents. The printer for the in-room computer terminals is to belocated remotely.

Note 8 Laser Panel - It is understood that air cooled lasers are soon to replace water cooled lasers. For thisreason, the future impact of air cooled lasers on the design of the HVAC system must be considered by thedesigner. In spite of this anticipated change, water and drainage should be provided in operating roomswhere existing water cooled lasers are to be continued in use.

Note 9 Zone Valve Box - Provide a separate medical gas zone valve box for each operating room in accordancewith NFPA 99, Chapter 4. Locate this cabinet in the peripheral corridor near the door to the operating roomit serves. See MCS, Division 15 for a description.

Note 10 Nitrogen Control Panel - See NFPA 99, Chapter 4 and MCS, Division 15 for information regarding thispanel.

VA DESIGN GUIDEAMBULATORY CARE INVASIVE PROCEDURES SUITE GUIDE PLATE 4-1

Reflected Ceiling Plan NotesAmbulatory Surgery Operating Room (General & Topical Anesthesia)

Note 1 Supply Air Outlet - Perforated panel centered over operating table with no obstructions. A/E is to design it.(Do not scale.) This outlet is to provide 30 percent of supply air for the operating room. Air distribution is tobe in a downward vertical direction. See the HVAC Design Manual for Hospital Projects.

Note 2 Supply Air Outlets - Stainless steel multiple slot panel diffusers to be located above the perimeter of the"clean air zone". (See Functional Plan.) A/E is to design them. (Do not scale.) These outlets are toprovide 70 percent of supply air for the operating room. This air is to be discharged in a vertical air streaminclined at an outward angle of fifteen degrees from the center of the room. See the HVAC Design Manualfor Hospital Projects.

Note 3 Mounting Plate for Articulating Utility Column - (Do not scale.) Size of mounting plate varies withmanufacturer. Exact size, type, and location are to be determined by the A/E in coordination with the VAMCand Central Office program officials.

Note 4 Surgical Light Fixture - Note that the location of the mounting plate is not to be placed directly over theoperating table. That zone must be kept unobstructed for the supply air outlet and the plenum serving itabove the ceiling. See the Electrical Design Manual, Chapter 6.

Note 5 Surgical Microscope - If VAMC chooses a ceiling-mounted microscope in lieu of a floor-mountedmicroscope, it must be supported by a fixed mounting plate. A ceiling track-mounted system is not to beused for the microscope due to concerns regarding asepsis. The exact size of the mounting plate dependsupon the microscope selection. (Do not scale the guideplate.) Coordinate details and utilities requirementswith the VAMC.

Note 6 Fluorescent Light Fixtures - General illumination. Only 2 x 4 recessed fixtures are to be used in theoperating room due to the fact that this size of fixture (with 6 lamps - Type D) is required in order to deliverenough ambient illumination while also producing color corrected light in the operating room. The design isnot to include 1 x 4 fluorescent fixtures. For more information see Electrical SD F-27.

Note 7 General Illumination on Emergency Power - 50 percent of the fluorescent light fixtures above the operatingtable are to be provided emergency power with battery backup. The fluorescent fixtures above the head ofthe patient (where the nurse anesthetist administers anesthesia and monitors the patient's vital signs) are tobe provided emergency power. (See CS 800-3.) Since the "head of the table" may be reversed onoccasions when the ceiling-mounted microscope is in use, fluorescent fixtures above both ends of the tableare to be put on emergency power.

Note 8 Mounting Plate for Video Monitors - If the VAMC chooses a suspended video system instead of a cart-mounted system, the mounting plate must be integrated into the ceiling layout. The exact size and locationof this plate must be determined. The equipment shown is similar to that found in a cardiac cath procedureroom; however, the mounting plate for the video monitors is not to be supported on tracks due to asepsisconsiderations.

Note 9 Video Monitors - A proposal to be considered is to provide a fiber-optic connection (enclosed in conduit)from the video monitors in the operating room to the microscope in the frozen section area of the clinicallaboratory. This would permit the surgical team in the operating room to see what the pathologist is talkingabout over the intercom while examining the biopsy specimen. This installation would reduce the need foranatomical pathologist to leave a contaminated area. Also, the surgical team would not have to wait for thepathologist to clean up, gown, and come to the operating suite to examine the tissue specimen.

Note 10 Sprinkler System - Coordinate the location of the sprinklers with other ceiling systems in accordance withMCS, Division 15 and Plumbing Design Manual, Medical Centers.

Note 11 Provide no ceiling tracks for intravenous solutions in the design. This restriction is based upon concerns forasepsis in the operating room.

The design isnot to include 1 x 4 fluorescent fixtures. For more Information see Electrical SD F-27.

Note 7 General Illumination on Emergency Power - 50 percent of the fluorescent light fixtures above the operatingtable are to be provided emergency power with battery backup. The fluorescent fixtures above the head ofthe patient (where the nurse anesthetist administers anesthesia and monitors the patient's vital signs) areto be provided emergency power. (See CS 800-3.)

Note 8 Video Monitors (A proposal to be considered by the VAMC and the A/E) - Is to provide a fiber-opticconnection (enclosed in conduit) from the video monitors in the operating room to the microscope in thefrozen section area of the clinical laboratory. This would permit the surgical team in the operating room tosee what the pathologist is talking about over the intercom while examining the biopsy specimen. Thisinstallation would reduce the need for anatomical pathologist to leave a contaminated area. Also, thesurgical team would not have to wait for the pathologist to clean up, gown, and come to the operating suiteto examine the tissue specimen.

Note 9 Sprinkler System - Coordinate the location of the sprinklers with other ceiling systems in accordance withMCS, Division 15 and Plumbing Design Manual, Medical Centers.

Note 10 Provide no ceiling tracks for intravenous solutions in the design. This restriction is based upon concernsfor asepsis in the operating room.

Additional Notes:1. Utility requirements for magnets vary greatly among manufacturers. There are different kinds of magnets withspecific utility requirements. Requirements also vary if gradient power supply and gradient coils are used, andwhether they are air-cooled or water-cooled. A water-cooled system, consisting of a closed loop water supply withwater-to-water heat exchanger to a refrigerator type heat exchanger, is recommended for gradient power supplyand gradient coils. The water must be filtered to protect equipment. Provide domestic water back-up for coolingwater in case of emergency.

NOTE: PROVIDE COOLING FOR MAGNET, COMPRESSED AIR OR NITROGEN ASREQUIRED.

Additional Notes (continued):2. Superconducting magnets use liquid cryogens (helium and nitrogen). Due to quenching and to prevent

explosion due to overpressure in the magnet, excess pressure is relieved through rupture discs. Dischargefrom these discs must be relieved to the outside through vents. Also, a separate emergency exhaust system isrequired with a minimum of 12 air changes per hour to exhaust above the roof any accidental gas spillage insidethe room. The emergency exhaust system shall be activated by an oxygen sensor. Also, provide emergencymake-up supply air from the normal supply system whenever the emergency exhaust air is activated.

3. Some manufacturers do not recommend blowing air directly at magnets.

Magnetic Resonance ImagingNarrative

VA DESIGN GUIDEMAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING PAGE 2-1

I. General Considerations

A. Overview

1. Current Direction

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is aspecialized diagnostic imaging toolemploying a strong magnetic field and theapplication of a radio frequency pulse tomeasure vector deflection of selectedatomic nuclei.

MRI is particularly useful in providingimages of soft tissues.

MRI is contra-indicated for patients withcardiac pacemakers or ferro-magneticaneurysmal clips.

The emitted magnetic field can effectCRT's and information systems. Therefore,great care must be employed in selecting asite location for the MRI.

Patient volume can be anticipated to beprimarily 80-90% outpatient volume.

When shared among multiple medicalcenters, mobile MRI units (docked to areaswith appropriate patient and staff spaces)may be a viable alternative to fixed MRIunits.

2. Trends

Magnetic Resonance Angiographytechnology is increasingly used.

MRI in combination with computed AxialTomography (CT) for comprehensivescreening of diseases that are difficult todiagnose in early stages (such as multiplesclerosis) is also increasingly used.

II.Functional Considerations

A. Operations

1. Services

Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a programunder Radiology Service. MRI should becoordinated with associated andcomplimentary diagnostic services toassure coordination of patient care.

a. Imaging Process

MRI is performed on inpatients andoutpatients on a regular and scheduledbasis. Services are also performed on anunscheduled basis for emergency patients.

MRI uses strong magnetic fields to inducemolecular resonance which creates radiofrequencies. These frequencies allow acomputer image to be created by theanalysis of measurements of frequenciesemitted by resonating cell structures.

The image is electronically enhanced,recorded on video, stored on tape or opticaldisk and reproduced as a laser image. Theimage can also be outputted to paper orfilm copy.

2. Patient Care Concept

MRI remains a centralized function due tothe high cost of the technology, the highlyspecialized space criteria (dictated bypermanently installed equipment), and thespecialized staffing requirements.

Page 361: VA guide -2009

FINAL DRAFT 9/28/95

Magnetic Resonance ImagingNarrative

VA DESIGN GUIDEMAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING PAGE 2-2

3. Level of Care

A single MRI will most often be HospitalBased, as this location provides the mostuniversal and hopefully convenient location.

4. Patient Base

VA MRI Facilities need to demonstrate anability to generate sufficient workload tojustify the substantial cost. This is basedon a cost benefit analysis.

VA MRI facilities are focused upon servingthe Veteran, and may participate in sharingagreements, joint ventures, and referrals. Also, efforts are made to include theveteran’s family and the general public.

5. Medical Records

Diagnostic evaluations generated within thedepartment become part of the veteran’sConsolidated Health Record (CHR) withactual films and/or electronic data storedlocally within the MRI Facility or inRadiology Film Storage.

Evaluations are also communicated to theordering physician in either hard copy orelectronic form (as required).

Image manipulation, interpretation,archiving, retrieval and distributionprocedures may occur within the MRIFacility or may be consolidated withRadiology. These techniques includevarying levels of electronic and film recordstorage requirements and will effect finalspace requirements.

6. Patient Protocol

Outpatient and inpatient procedures areordered by physicians and scheduled bythe department during regular businesshours.

Unscheduled and off-hour procedures willdepend on the level of care to be provided.

7. Special Requirements

Teaching facilities will require moretechnical support space, including spacesfor small observation groups, interpretationareas, and image manipulation areas.

Coordination with related departments,facilities, and program missions is requiredto verify space needs. These may includeprep, recovery, exam, and stretcher holdingspaces.

Such departments may include:• Hospital-Nursing Care;• Long Term Care Facilities;• Ambulatory Services;• Emergency;• Surgery; and• Satellite Facilities.

B. Space Planning Issues

1. Flexibility

Certain technical space requirementsimpose special constraints on the siting anddesign of MRI facilities. These mayinclude:• Magnetic field generated by MRI

magnets;• The sensitivity of Imaging process to

radio frequencies (RF’s);• The size and weight of the magnet;• cryogen service; and• Venting requirements.

Page 362: VA guide -2009

FINAL DRAFT 9/28/95

Magnetic Resonance ImagingNarrative

VA DESIGN GUIDEMAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING PAGE 2-3

Although specialized facilities are required,generic guidelines should be applied toaccommodate a wide range of MRItechnology to maximize equipmentselection options.

2. Efficiency

Economies of shared functions, facilities,and staff are increasingly facilitated by MRIsystems. “Self shielded” magnets allow MRItechnology to be located near operationswhich are sensitive to magnetic fields andnear fixed and moving metallic objectssuch as building structure, elevators andvehicular traffic.

3. Human Factors

Patient dignity and self-determination areaccommodated while consideringoperational efficiencies.

Patient's vulnerability to stress fromnoise, lack of privacy, poor lighting andother causes can have harmful effects onthe healing process. This is a well knownand documented phenomenon.

An inherent opportunity exists in thedesign of Magnetic Resonance ImagingFacilities to address these issues and putforth creative solutions that enhancepatient comfort and contribute to positiveoutcomes.

A prime objective should be tode-emphasize the institutional image oftraditional health care facilities and tosurround the patient (and familymembers) with architectural finishes andfurnishings that are familiar andnon-threatening.

Good planning and design appeal to thespirit and sensibilities of patients andcare providers alike.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging facilitiesshould be healing environments thatallow the building itself to become a partof the therapy. The technicalrequirements should be addressed in anintegrated manner to support theseconcepts.

Patient privacy is to be accommodatedwithout sacrificing facility utilization.

Security is addressed by planning,design, and detail considerations.

Handicapped access is accommodatedby the application of UFAS and ADAdesign standards to space and fixedequipment layouts.

4. Technical and Environmental

MRI shielding considerations includecontrol of magnetic fields and the isolationfrom external radio frequency interference.

Magnetic Shielding and Magnetic Fieldsiting considerations will vary with magneticfield strength and with the features of theequipment and manufacturer selected.

The environment effects on fieldhomogeneity and the effects of MagneticField on other technologies and surroundingmust be considered.

Employment of a registered health physicistshould be undertaken when the program isput together, as his/her recommendationswill determine shielding of equipment,thickness of walls, etc.

VA DESIGN GUIDEMAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING PAGE 2-4

C. Functional Space Relationships

1. Work Flow

a. Patient

Provide a single point of control forinpatients and outpatients.

b. Staff and Administrative Functions

Staff and Administrative areas are locatedoutside of patient traffic areas.

Staff functions may be located within thedepartment or in a convenient locationshared with another department (usuallyRadiology Service).

c. Patient Records and Work Orders

Patient records and Work Orders shouldmove among the administrative, filmprocessing, viewing, and interpretativefunctions should be separated from thepatient traffic wherever possible.

d. Clean and Soiled Materials

Locate Clean and Soiled Utility Functionsclose to the Patient areas that they supportand also away from patient traffic.

2. Organizational Concepts

a. Functional Plan

Reception is strategically located to controlaccess to the patient areas and to securethe MRI from unauthorized access

The MRI Control Area and the ElectronicsRoom need to be Adjacent to the MRIProcedure Room

b. Building Systems Integration

Coordinate locations of depressed slabsand structure for equipment, electricalaccess, and magnetic and/or radiofrequency shielding.

Evaluate need for computer access flooringon a project basis.

Consider size and weight of magnet whenestablishing locations. This could relegatelocations on the lower or the lowest floors ofthe facility.

The radiation problem must also beconsidered in relation to adjacent areas.

c. Organization To Minimize MagneticShielding and Field Constraints

Both magnetically shielded and unshieldedMRI systems require consideration ofmagnetic fields when establishing room andequipment layouts.

Steel-support structures arranged in afashion not symmetrical to the magneticfield impose special requirements forshielding.

Installation within multiple story facilitiesmay impose planning and structuralrestrictions on spaces above and below.

3. Location / External Relationships

a. Patient Access / Wayfinding

MRI Facilities should be located convenientto parking, ambulatory care, and inpatientaccess.

Location with other diagnostic facilitiesassists in wayfinding and coordination ofpatient services.

Page 364: VA guide -2009

FINAL DRAFT 9/28/95

Magnetic Resonance ImagingNarrative

VA DESIGN GUIDEMAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING PAGE 2-5

b. Functional Adjacencies

The MRI facility benefits from a locationnear Radiology as they may share staff andfacilities

c. Service Access

Magnet installation and replacementrequires crane access and a direct route formagnet passage.

Cryogen venting during quenching isaccomplished by a direct vent to outdoors.

Cryogen replenishment is accomplished viacryogen dewars which may be stored onsite. Access is required around and abovethe magnet for cryogen service.

III. Technical Considerations

A. Architectural

1. Interior Materials and Finishes

a. Partitions

Interior partitions should primarily bepainted gypsum wallboard on metalstuds. Partitions around physicianoffices, exam rooms and treatmentrooms should have sound attenuationbatts between the studs in accordancewith VA Construction Standard H-18-3and Standard 34-1, “Noise TransmissionControl”.

Partitions and doors around the MRIGantry Room should provide radiofrequency (RF) shielding and beconstructed of non-magnetic materials.

Coordinate RF Shielding requirementswith the equipment manufacturer andhave them reviewed by a registeredhealth physicist.

b. Floors

Floors in offices, conference rooms andwaiting areas should be carpet with a 100mm (4”) high resilient base.

Floors in toilet rooms should be ceramictile with a ceramic tile base. If metaltoilet stalls are used, be certain they areremotely located

Floors in most other spaces should bevinyl composition tile with a 100 mm (4”)high resilient base.

Floors in MRI Gantry Rooms require a 40mm (1-1/2”) deep depression toaccommodate the RF shielding.

Page 365: VA guide -2009

FINAL DRAFT 9/28/95

Magnetic Resonance ImagingNarrative

VA DESIGN GUIDEMAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING PAGE 2-6

A computer/access floor system may berequired in the MRI computer room andpart of the Gantry Room. The accessfloor system should be of non-magneticmaterials.

c. Ceilings

Ceilings should be primarily lay-inacoustic ceiling tile. The ceilingsuspension system in the MRI GantryRoom should also be of non-magneticmaterials.

Non-magnetic materials should be usedin the vicinity of the gantry room.

d. Protection

Wall and corner guards should be usedin corridors and other areas where walldamage from cart traffic is anticipated.

2 Interior Doors and Hardware

Interior doors should be 45 mm (1 3/4")thick, solid-core, flush-panel wood doorsor non-magnetic hollow metal doors andhollow metal frames.

Doorjambs should have hospital typesanitary stops that stop 200 mm (8”) fromthe floor to facilitate mopping. Hollowmetal doors should be used where highimpact is a concern and where fire rateddoors are required. Non-magnetic kick /mop plates should generally be applied toboth sides of the doors. Handicappedaccessible hardware should be usedthroughout.

All metal in the vicinity of the gantry roomshall be non-magnetic.

Refer to VA Program Guide PG-08-14,“Room Finishes, Door and HardwareSchedule” for additional information.

B. Equipment

1. Casework

Casework systems should be chosento provide flexibility in planning andutilization purposes.

Casework systems should incorporatecomponents dimensioned for ease ofmultiple re-use installationapplications.

Casework systems should be plannedwithout corner installations and fillerpanels.

2. Information Management Systems

Information Management Systems shallinclude elements such as:

• image retrieval• processing / storage• treatment planning• patient registrations• patient charges• physician’s order entry• patient/staff movement

They also may require additionalshielding.

These systems’ elements will requireaccess to the main facility’s “informationbackbone” as well as the departmentalLocal Area Network (LAN). Allcomponents should be planned forcompatibility.

3. Therapy Systems

Imaging systems’ requirements will varyfor each facility and the technology maybe deferred in selection/procurement. Design requirements will be as instructedby the Contracting Officer.

Page 366: VA guide -2009

FINAL DRAFT 9/28/95

Magnetic Resonance ImagingNarrative

VA DESIGN GUIDEMAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING PAGE 2-7

4. Film Processing

Film processing requirements will vary foreach facility. Design criteria for “digitallaser” and the integrated use of PictureArchiving and Communications Systems(PACS), will be as instructed by theContracting Officer.

C. Heating, Ventilation and AirConditioning

1. Operation

Air conditioning systems should beprovided to heat, cool and ventilate theindividual space, as required to satisfythe VA design criteria. Follow TB Criteriain the HVAC Design Manual for hospitalprojects.

The air conditioning systems serving theMRI area should be designed to operateat full capacity which will be determinedby local conditions. A dedicatedcomputer-type AC unit should beconsidered to cool and heat the computerequipment room. Theengineers/designers should verify the ACrequirements with equipment supplier.

Client requirements must coordinate withthe final system.

Satellite Outpatient Clinic (SOPC)

Recommended Space Criteriafor SPD

Supply, Processing, and Distribution (SPD)is responsible for the processing and issuing ofmedical and surgical supplies and equipmentused in the delivery of patient care. An SPDsection may be required for a stand-alone SOPCthat operates as an off-site satellite facility that isadministratively attached to a VAMC. In somecases, depending on the distance and frequencyof supply deliveries, the VAMC may consider iteconomically sound to use the parent facility'sSPD rather than duplicating the function at theSOPC.

Soiled Receiving

• Decontamination Area: Minimum 18.6 NSM(200 NSF), 12.3 NSM (132 NSF) eachadditional sterilizers; Max. 46.5 NSM (500NSF) Space in this area is based on thenumber of sterilizers required to processreusable supplies and equipment. Theminimum of 18.6 NSM (200 NSF) providesspace for loading zone/access to 3 pass-through sterilizers (1 washer/ sterilizer/sanitizer, 1 steam, and 1 ethylene oxide[EtO] sterilizer) and 1 ultrasonic washer andsink.

• Manual Equipment Wash: 7.4 NSM (80NSF) This room is used to decontaminatecarts and equipment used in delivery ofpatient care.

• Housekeeping Aids Closet: 3.7 NSM (40NSF) For safety reasons this HAC will beused only for the decontamination area.

• Locker, Toilet, Shower: 7.4 NSM (80 NSF).Space provided will accommodate twolockers and a bench (2.3 NSM, 25 NSF),toilet with lavatory and water closet (2.8NSM, 30 NSF), and a shower at 2.3 NSM

(25 NSF). This area is to be used bypersonnel assigned to the Soiled Receivingand Decontamination Area.

Clean Areas

• Preparation Area: Minimum 18.6 NSM (200NSF), Add 12.3 NSM (132 NSF) for eachadditional sterilizer, Maximum 46.5 NSM(500 NSF) As in the decontamination area,space is based on the number of sterilizersneeded to process reusable supplies andequipment. The minimum of 18.6 NSM (200NSF), will provide space for loadingzone/access to 3 pass-through sterilizers (1washer/ sterilizer/ sanitizer, 1 steam, andone EtO gas sterilizer) and an ultrasonicwasher and sink.

• Ethylene Oxide Gas Cylinder Storage: 2.8NSM (30 NSF) If all 100% EtO sterilizers(which use a cartridge), are to be used,space for cylinder storage is unnecessary.

• Sterile/Clean Storage Area: Minimum 22.3NSM (240 NSF) Maximum 46.5 NSM (500NSF) Total annual SOPC visits (notincluding psychiatric visits) x .0035 + 200

• Clean Receiving and Bulk Storage Area: 7.4NSM (80 NSF) This space is provided forreceipt, breakdown, and temporary holdingof bulk sterile/clean supplies.

• Dispatch Area: The issuing and control ofmedical-surgical supplies and equipment isaccomplished in this area. A visual register(quantity and location) of issued suppliesand equipment is maintained in theDispatcher's Control Station/Office. Spacefor this area should be computed as follows:

A) Sterile/Clean Area x 0.1

Program and Facility Planning Guidancefor Tuberculosis Programs

August 18, 1995

OVERVIEW

Over the last several years, the issue of tuberculosis (TB) has been prominent in both the medicalliterature and the national press. This has been emphasized in the last year coincident with an increasedpubic awareness of emerging and re-emerging pathogens on the national and global level. Finally, andafter much work, the actual number of new cases of active tuberculosis disease is decreasing nationallywith the most notable decrease in the New York area. However, the TB epidemic continues particularlyalong the coast of the United States. No section of the country has been completely spared, however, ascases of tuberculosis have been identified in all VHA Regions.

To effectively plan and implement a tuberculosis program facilities must obtain information on currentand projected TB workload, evaluate and define missions related to TE, and develop integrated plans forpatient care, employee healtf4.and enhance facility controls. This TB program guidance will provide aconsistent framework for such VA TB program planning,

This planning document is organized in a format that prioritizes overall guidance for TB control based onclinical and epidemiologic priorities. It specifies infection control practices and regulatory requirements,while incorporating work practice controls, engineering, controls, and personal protective equipment intothe overall guidance. This is not designed to be a regulatory compliance document, but rather tointegrate the various components of tuberculosis control strategies into the medical facility culture.

CHARACTERISTICS OF A TB PROGRAM

I. Assign Responsibility

While all programs within VA Medical Centers are the ultimate responsibility of the Medical CenterDirector, it is appropriate to assign the responsibility for the tuberculosis program to a specific qualifiedperson or group of people within the facility. Each facility is to have a coherent, practical andimplementable program. Then the program must be implemented, monitored, and evaluated. Theprogram will also ensure that a mechanism will be established to identify responsible parties. forcomponents of the program, establish the program structure, and define the hierarchy of responsibilityfrom TB program officials to the facility Director. Included in this group should be representation fromInfection Control, Medical Staff (Infectious Diseases and Pulmonary Medicine if available), Nursing,Occupational Health, Safety/Industrial Hygiene, and Engineering, thus assuring the availability ofexpertise in all areas of TB control as well as ownership of the program through a multidisciplinary inputprocess.

Page 674: VA guide -2009

II. Risk Assessment, Tuberculosis Plan and Periodic Reassessment

An initial facility risk assessment must be undertaken. This includes gathering data regarding thefollowing: tuberculosis in the community, tuberculosis within the facility, skin test conversions within thefacility, and other evidence, if any, of person-to-person transmission of TB within the local health caresetting. A specific level of risk can be assigned for purposes of planning and monitoring or evaluating'intervention strategies to be incorporated into the written facility tuberculosis plan. The plan shouldinclude all components of the tuberculosis control strategies for the facility in a format that is concise yetcomprehensive. It should be located in a single document or group of documents that are easilyaccessible by hospital employees. Fragmentation of the tuberculosis control plan with multiple non-centralized documents should be avoided.

This risk assessment will need to be redefined at intervals appropriate to the risk- of transmission oftuberculosis as defined by disease/infection prevalence in the community and the facility. Specifically,changes in case rates for the facility or the community, clusters of skin test conversions, or other evidencesuspicious for facility TB mission will necessitate immediate reevaluation of the facility risk. The repeatrisk assessment should also include evaluation of the effectiveness of the extant, local methodologies forprevention of TB transmission.

III. Identification, Evaluation, and Treatment of Patients with Tuberculosis

The most important factors in preventing transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis are the earlyidentification of patients who may have infectious TB, prompt implementation of TB precautions for suchpatients, and prompt initiation of effective treatment for those who are likely to have TB.

For patients presenting to the health care facility for care, screening for signs and symptoms of TB shouldbe done in the initial triage locale. The detail and extent of this screening process should be determinedbased on the facility risk category. An example of a suitable screening methodology would bequestioning the patient regarding cough lasting greater than three weeks, weight loss, night-sweats andmalaise. A facility should individualize its screening methodology in the most appropriate manner for itsown risk stratum based on perceived risk to other patients and employees. As patients present for care inhigh or moderate risk areas, the issue of initial triage is extremely critical. Consideration should be givento speed of triage, traffic patterns as patients move about in admissions area, clinic assignments, and riskto employees performing administrative functions. Any triage system must be designed to preventpatients with suspected or known infectious tuberculosis (S/KI TB) from moving about the facility in anunprotected manner.

Tuberculin skin testing for high risk patients (methodology to meet most current CDC Guidelines) isdesigned to identify patients who are infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis before they developsymptoms (cough, fever, sweats, weight loss) of active disease and become infectious.

For long-term care facilities, screening prior to admission should include PPD testing (following mostrecent CDC and VA guidance) and/or chest x-ray as appropriate (routine screening chest x-rays shouldonly be implemented based on local risk assessment), and include a focused physical examina6on. Inhigh or moderate risk areas this should be done prior to admission to the long-term care facility. Inminimal or low risk areas, this screening may be completed within 72 hours of admission if adequatetriage is accomplished.

Page 675: VA guide -2009

A. Patient Masks

When any patients are identified as having S/KI TB, they should wear a surgical mask and be placed inrooms meeting identified engineering controls 'or S/KI TE patients as noted later in this document.

B. Tuberculin Skin Test (TST) for High Risk Patients

Screening for high risk individuals must be a hospital-wide policy. This includes, but is not limited to,timely ongoing screening of HIV-positive patients, dialysis patients, the homeless, substance abusepatients and patients in other high risk special programs such as Hospital Based Home Care (HBHC) andothers as identified by the facility. All these screening programs should use the most current CDC-defined methodology for TST. If a patient has signs or symptoms suggestive of tuberculosis disease, afull evaluation must be conducted.

C. Laboratory Assessment

It is critical to expedite the evaluation and treatment of patients with S/KI TB. This includes access tocurrent laboratory technology for acid fast bacteria (AFB) smears, cultures, and susceptibility testing.

1. AFB smears, the following is necessary:

a. Available five days per week and reported within 24 hours of specimen receiptb. Consideration should be given to seven days per week for areas with a high

incidence of TBc. One sputum per patient per day should be sufficient

2. Cultures for Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the following is needed:

a. Available five days per weekb. Rapid identification methodology

Smears and culture results should be reported immediately to designated person(s). This must include thecare provider and should be reported to the Infection control function.

3. Susceptibility testing for Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the following, is appropriate:

a. First isolateb. Additional isolates if:

(1) failure to convert cultures within three months of beginning therapy(2) clinical evidence of failure to respond to therapy(3) other specific circumstances may dictate additional susceptibility testing.

It is not required that all of these activities be done on station. It is the facility’s responsibility to assurethat rapid, current diagnostic laboratory testing for Mycobacterium tuberculosis is readily available tothe clinicians. The guidance above should be used as a basis for individual station decision-makingregarding specific time frames and location for each of the studies noted above based on patient careneeds. These decisions should be documented in writing in the facility tuberculosis control plan to ensurefacility-wide consensus by the process stakeholders on these critical clinical testing issues.

Page 676: VA guide -2009

4

D. Patient Management

If the patient has been identified as having active tuberculosis disease, initiation of therapy shouldbe prompt using the most current CDC guidelines.

After a patient has been identified as having S/KI TB, the patient should be placed in a room meeting theengineering control guidelines noted below in this document. Enablers may be necessary to assure thatthe patient remains in this controlled environment, since patients cannot be allowed to wander about thehospital in an unprotected manner. Enablers, such a-s television sets, telephones, bathing facilities, andrecreational activities may be important to maintain these precautionary measures. In order to maintainproper directional air flow in the rooms, the doors must remain closed. If the patient must be out of theroom for clinical purposes, the patient should wear a surgical mask and administrative arrangementsmade to expedite the return of the patient to the negative pressure room. Discharge and follow-upplanning should be initiated as soon as possible in order to assure seamless transition between the hospitalsetting and outpatient care. This will likely involve the VHA outpatient clinic system and thegovernmental health department from which the patient may receive follow-up. As part of this process,immediate reporting of tuberculosis patients to the health department consistent with VA rules andregulations is necessary.

E. Visitors

Visitors to patients who have S/KI TB should be given respirators to wear while in the isolation rooms,and they should be given general instructions on how to use their respirators (CDC Guidelines MMWR,October 28, 1994, Vol. 43, No.RR- 13, p28).

F. Discontinuation of AFB Precautions

The following criteria must be used for discontinuing precautions for patients in the Medical Center withS/KI TB:

1. The patient is found not to have tuberculosis or

2. The patient is on appropriate therapy; (it should be noted that appropriate therapyneeds to be defined at the local level based on community incidence of multi-drugresistant tuberculosis, tuberculosis susceptibility testing of facility isolates, and thespecific known susceptibilities of the patient's organism) and A positive clinicalresponse to therapy and Three consecutive negative A.FB smears collected on separatedays

IV. Engineering Controls

A. General Guidelines

The CDC guidelines are the minimum acceptable level, and should be increased where required to satisfyother mandated criteria or engineering requirements. Where current VA criteria exceed the CDCguidance, the use of VA criteria is recommended. However, if existing configuration or cost do not allowcompliance to more stringent VA criteria, then the CDC guidance is the minimum acceptable.

Page 677: VA guide -2009

1. Six total air changes per hour are likely to reduce the concentration of bacteria the room. Forthe purposes of reducing the concentration of droplet nuclei, TB bedrooms and treatment rooms inexisting health care facilities should have an airflow of greater than or equal to six air changes per hour.Where feasible, this airflow rate should be increased to greater than or equal to 12 air changes per hour.New construction or renovation of existing health care facilities should be designed so that TB bedroomsachieve an airflow of greater than or equal to 12 air changes per hour.

2. Air from TB bedrooms and treatment rooms for S@ TB patients should be exhausted to theoutside. The air should be exhausted in a manner and location so that it is not pulled into intake louversor windows without significant dilution. At a minimum, the exhaust shall be 25 feet from any air intake.However, other factors, such as wind direction, wind velocity, stack effect, system sizes, and height ofbuildings must be evaluated and location of intake and exhaust outlets adjusted as required. If, in someinstances, recirculation of air into the general ventilation system from such rooms is unavoidable, high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters should be installed in the exhaust leading from the room to thegeneral ventilation system. Air from TB bedrooms and treatment rooms in new or renovated facilitiesshould not be recirculated into the general ventilation system.

3. Exhaust air quantity must be 10% greater than the supply air. It is further recommended thatthe exhaust system should serve only the TB rooms and not be part of the general exhaust system. If thisis not practical, then use of the general exhaust system is acceptable provided appropriate precautions aretaken to assure that these systems are adequately designed, installed, balanced and maintained. Theserequirements result in providing additional outside air through the air handling system which then impactsheating and cooling capacities for both air side and primary equipment. In all applications, thermal loadcalculations or occupancy of the space may require a higher air change rate.

4. Rooms should be under negative pressure with respect to adjacent areas when occupied by apatient with SIKI TB.

5. Anterooms are not necessary for SIKI TB patient bedrooms.

6. The direction of the air-flow for TB rooms shall be monitored daily when an S/KI TB patientis occupying the room. When not in use by S/KI TB patients, the directional allow will be checkedmonthly. The method of testing for directional airflow in the S/KI TB rooms is at the discretion of thefacility, but must be of an acceptable standard. This would include such methodologies as smoke tubetesting or an airflow gauge.

7. The number of air changes per hour in these rooms should be checked yearly at aminimum. This may need to be more frequent based on facility risk assessment and recommendations ofthe Environmental and Infection Control Committee. In addition, the number of air chances per hourshould be checked after any maintenance to the airflow system.

8. In rooms where patient turnover is expected, use CDC guidelines ( MMWR, October28,1994,Vol.43,No.RR-13) for airchanges per hour to determine time required for removal of airbornecontaminants before the next patient occupies the room vacated by a patient with S/KI TB.

Page 678: VA guide -2009

9. When in use by SIKI TB patients, doors in negative pressure rooms must remain closed,except for entering or exiting the room. Proper airflow and pressure differentials between areas aredifficult to control because of open doors, movement of patients and staff, temperature, and the effect ofvertical openings. Air pressure differentials can only be maintained in completely closed rooms. An opendoor reduces or eliminates the desired effect of negative pressure rooms. Whether windows are needed indoors to S/KI TB patient bedrooms is a local decision.

10. Medical Centers and outpatient clinics should consider providing emergency power toexhaust systems serving inpatient TB rooms and to some of the ambulatory care rooms designated formanagement of S/KI TB patients. The potential risks to patients and staff, available emergency powersystem capacity, and relative priority of other functions covered by emergency power should be carefullyevaluated when considering costly emergency power system emergency expansion.

B. Medical, Surgical, and Neurological (MS&M) Nursing Acute Care Units

To determine the number- of TB rooms, use the following formulae to determine number of patientbedrooms for cases of S/KI TB:

1. Current need: (Identify the maximum number of patients requiring respiratory precautionsfor S/KI TB at any one time within the past 12 months,) x (change in incidence of TB in community overthe past year).

2. Projected Need: Using the estimated change in the population in the facility, DistributedPopulation Planning Base (DPPB) for any Future year, calculate future needs based on current estimateas determined above multiplied by this population change ratio.

EXAMPLE 1 - All specific numbers are for illustrative purposes only.

15.0 - Maximum number of patients requiring AFB precautions at one time (e.g., 15)

x 1. 05 - Change in community incidence (this represents a 5% increase in community incidence)

15.75 - Need for TB beds based on changes in TB incidence in community

x 10.85 - Correct for future anticipated changes in veteran population (this represents a 15% decrease in expected veteran population)

13.38 - Projected no. of AFB precaution beds needed corrected for calculated changes in veteran population and community incidence

C. Nursing Unit Organization

1. High Incidence Area or Referral Center:

Medical Centers with sufficient workload or those assigned the mission of referral center may choose toconcentrate all TB bedrooms on an existing MS&N nursing unit designated for TB inpatient care. Or,they may designate bedrooms to be used for TB care throughout their facility. In establishing groups ofTB bedrooms on an MS&N nursing unit, a Medical Center should renovate a contiguous sub-set of thebedrooms on the unit to meet HVAC and bathroom requirements; not necessarily the entire ward. The

Page 679: VA guide -2009

7

number of bedrooms included in the sub-set would be based on anticipated workload determined for thatfacility. The following facility requirements must be met:

a. All one-bed rooms designated for TB must meet CDC guidelines for S/KI TB

b. Each one-bed room must have a private bathroom and should have a shower wherepossible. Safe shower facilities are to be available, however, if the bedroom for S/KI TB . patients doesnot offer these facilities

c. Anterooms are not required for the negative pressure rooms designated for S/KI TB

d. For S/KI TB patients, examination/treatment rooms and any other special treatmentrooms where sputum induction, aerosol treatments and/or cough or aerosol-generating procedures areperformed should meet CDC requirements for infectious TB with the additional requirement of 12 orgreater air changes per hour. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) may be used as an enhancementto the recommended engineering controls.

2. Low Incidence Areas

For those facilities anticipating a low S/KI TB workload, little or no chance to existing nursing units-maybe required. Existing VA space planning criteria for MS&N nursing units (see Planning Criteria for VAFacilities, Handbook 7610 Chapter 100.04) requires two isolation suites per nursing unit. These roomswill be capable of providing negative or positive pressure and have an anteroom and attached privatebathroom. Minimum air changes are 8 per hour with 100% outside exhaust through a HEPA filter. Ifthese rooms are not currently provided or if additional rooms are needed for S/KI TB patients then theseadditional rooms must meet CDC guidance for S/KI TB and have a private bathroom. An existing 2-bedroom which has appropriate ventilation airflow and bathroom facilities meeting, at a minimum, currentCDC guidance for S/KI TB, may be scheduled for use by a single TB patient as a low cost alternative toconstructing or renovating an additional 1-bed room.

Sputum induction, aerosol treatments and/or cough or aerosol-generating procedures should be performedeither in TB bedrooms or other rooms that meet CDC guidance for S/KI T'B.

D. MH&BS Nursing Units (Mental Health and Behavioral Sciences)

In general, no rooms should be required for S/KI TB patients as they should be transferred to anappropriate MS&N nursing unit for diagnosis and treatment as needed until they are no longer infectious.

E. Intensive Care Units (ICUs)

1. Existing ICUs should meet cur-rent VHA space planning criteria (see Planning Criteria forVA Facilities, Handbook 7610 Chapter 102.05) for the number of isolation suites and at a minimum meetCDC criteria for ventilation for S/KI TB.

2. All ICUs which utilize return air systems shall have the return air HEPA filtered.Installation of ultraviolet (UV) lamps may be considered in ICUs which there is a high risk for TBtransmission. All ICU rooms housing S/KI TB patients must, at a minimum, meet the current CDCguidance for S/KI TB.

Page 680: VA guide -2009

8

F. Post Anesthesia Recovery Units (PARUs)

Medical Centers should have at le one recovery room within the PARU meeting at a minimum CDCventilation criteria for S/KI TB. As an option, especially in low-incidence areas, Medical Centers mayrecover surgical patients with S/KI TB in an ICU isolation suite or room that meets CDC guidance forS/KI TB.

G. Surgical Suite (See MMWR, October 28, 1994, Vol. 43, No. RR- 13, p. 50-51 for details)

1. Existing VHA facility criteria (see HVAC Design Manual) and standards for surgery areappropriate for surgical care of S/KI TB patients. Current VHA criteria exceed the CDC guidelines.Typically, no changes will be required unless return air is used in the OR. VA criteria have notsanctioned the use of return air in ORs for many years.

2. Traffic patterns should be designed to reduce unnecessary movement throughout thesurgical suite, hallways and other associated areas when surgery on a patient with S/KI TB is performed.

3. Appropriate scheduling and other controls are necessary for surgery on S/KI TB patientssince positive pressure allow is used in operating rooms.

H. Long Term Care

In general, no rooms are required for S/KI TB patients as they should be transferred to an appropriateMS&N nursing unit for diagnosis and treatment as needed until they are no longer infectious.

I. Ambulatory Care

1. Determining the Number of TB Rooms:

Determining the number of TB rooms 'in the Ambulatory Care setting should be in alignment with thefacility risk assessment. Specifically, facilities in the lowest risk assessment category may not needrooms with specific tuberculosis engineering controls at all, but rather a written plan for dealing with thepossible event of a S/KI TB patient reaching the facility. For facilities above the minimal risk category,the following is a suggested method for determining the number of exam/treatment or special treatmentrooms designated for S/KI TB patients in unscheduled ambulatory care areas (hospital-based, satellite,and independent OPCs):

a. Obtain the estimated eligible veteran population for the facility from DPPB for anyspecified future year and the current eligible veteran population for the facility.

b. Each facility should generate the estimated number of potential unscheduled S/KI TBpatient visits per year.

Page 681: VA guide -2009

9

c. Calculate the projected number of potential unscheduled S/KI TB Patient visits peryear using the following formula:

A = Estimated eligible veteran population for the facility from the DPPB for any specified future year

B = Current eligible veteran population for the facility from DPPBC = Current number of potential unscheduled S/KI TB patient visits

D = Projected potential unscheduled S/KI TB patient visits per year

(A ÷ B)x C = D

EXAMPLE 2 - All specific numbers are for illustrative purposes only.

(A)400,000 - Estimated population for a future year (e.g., 400,000 for the year 2000)

(B)÷ 450,000 - Current veteran population )e.g., 450,000)

÷ 0.88 - Result of A B

(C)480 = Current number of unscheduled S/KI TB patient visits per year (e.g., year 2000)

(D)422.4 - Results of A B x C which is the estimated number of unscheduled visits of S/KI

TB patients for future year (e.g., year 2000)

d. Provide the number of designated TB exam/treatment or special procedure rooms asdetermined below using the potential SIM TB patient visit estimated generated in 1. I.c. above.

CALCULATED POTENTIAL UINSCHEDULEDS/KI TB PATIENTS VISITS (PER YEAR)

DESIGNATED TB EXAM/TREATMENTROOMS

500 OR LESS Use emergency area isolation room

501-1000 One additional TB room

Each additional 1000 One additional room

Designated TB rooms determined above may be located in the walk-in clinic module and/or in othermodules to meet local operating procedures and needs.

Page 682: VA guide -2009

10

2. Facility/air:

a. Meet at a minimum current CDC guidelines for unscheduled areas and high riskclinics.

b. Meet a minimum current CDC guidelines for ventilation and airflow for S/KI TB:

(1) Emergency area Isolation room(s) (anteroom not required)

(2) ENT room(s)

(3) Aerosolized pentamidine room(s)

(4) Designated exam/treatment/procedure room(s)

3. Unscheduled areas

All unscheduled ambulatory care areas and associated waiting- areas should have ventilation designedand maintained to reduce the risk of tuberculosis transmission. Germicidal UV lamps and/or HEPAfilters may provide additional benefit when used to supplement ventilation, particularly in facilitieslocated in areas of high incidence for TB.

4. Scheduled areas (clinics)

All scheduled areas serving patients who are at high risk for TB transmission should be designed toreduce the risk of TB transmission. Air from clinics serving patients at high risk for TB should not be re-circulated unless it is first passed through an effective high-efficiency filtration system (HEPA filters arecurrently the effective high-efficiency filtration system available).

5. Designated exam/treatment rooms for S/KI TB

VHA ambulatory care programs in Medical Centers and in satellite/independent outpatient clinic musthave some facilities that are adequate to deal with S/KI TB patients. These TB rooms can beexam/treatment rooms and/or special procedures rooms that are designated for use with S/KI TB patients.These rooms should meet CDC guidance for S/KI TB with the additional requirement that a minimum of12 air changes per hour must be exhausted (See IV.A.2). These rooms would normally be located 'm ornear the walk-in clinic module.

J. High Risk Areas

1. Potential Aerosol Producing Procedure Areas:

a. The pulmonary function laboratory (including spirometry and exercise rooms),bronchoscopy area(s), pulmonary function treatment rooms, and sputum induction areas and any otherspecial procedure room (e.g., ENT) in which cough inducing procedures are done on patients who mayhave infectious TB must meet CDC guidelines for S/KI TB with the additional requirement that aminimum of 12 air changes per hour must be exhausted. Additionally, airflow rates should be calculatedon expected patient turnover in these treatment areas based on the most recent CDC guidance.

Page 683: VA guide -2009

11

b. Any room (e.g. examination/treatment room procedure room) in the health care facilityin which aerosolized pentamidine (AP) procedures are performed on patients who may have infectious TBmust meet CDC guidelines for infectious TE with the additional requirement that a minimum of 12 airchanges per hour must be exhausted (See IV .A-2). Additionally, airflow rates should be calculated onexpected patient turnover in these treatment areas based on the most recent CDC guidance. If a booth orother containment entity is used for any potential aerosol producing procedure, booth airflow and exhaustshould meet CDC guidelines.

K. Radiology

At least one radiology room with chest x-ray capabilities should meet CDC guidance for S/KI TB. Bothambulatory care and in-patient programs can share this negative pressure radiology room if feasible.This specialized room with these engineering controls may not be necessary in facilities in the minimalrisk category.

L. Anatomic Pathology:

The morgue must meet at a minimum CDC guidance for infectious TB and follow current VA criteriawith a minimum of 12 air changes per hour with 100% exhaust to the outside through a HEPA filter.

M. Dental

At referral centers and at facilities in which emergency dental care is provided, at least one dentaloperators should meet CDC guidance for S/KI TB. Other health care Facilities may send S/KI TBpatients for dental. care to referral centers based on workload and travel distance.

N. HIV-related Issues

No, specific heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) considerations are necessary for patientswith HIV infection.

O. Dialysis Program

A room which meets at a minimum current CDC ventilation and airflow guidelines for S/KI TB must beavailable for dialysis of S/KI TB patients. The location of this area is at the discretion of the facility.Based on local need this area may be in the dialysis unit or ICU, or other area in the Medical Centerbased on patient need and efficient use of resources.

V. Respiratory Protection

A. General Criteria

Performance criteria for respiratory protective devices as outlined in the most recent CDC guidance are tobe met. This requires a respiratory protection program that follows the regulatory requirements of theOccupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as well as American National StandardsInstitute (AINSI) Standards.

Page 684: VA guide -2009

12

B. Respiratory Protective Devices

Respiratory protection is required for persons entering rooms in which patients with S/KI TB are beinghoused, for persons present during cough-inducing, aerosol-generating procedures performed on suchpatients, and for persons in other settings where administrative and engineering controls are not likely toprotect them from inhaling, infectious airborne droplet nuclei. These other settings include transportingpatients who may have S/KI TB in emergency transport vehicles, and providing urgent surgical or dentalcare to pa6ents who have S/KI TB before determination has been made that the patient is non-infectious.These settings may also include home based health care programs, where patients with S/KI TB are beingseen in the home setting.

In the Mycobacteriology Laboratory, routine use of respiratory protective devices should not benecessary. However, if the laboratorian is working with significantly amplified Mycobacteriurntuberculosis cultures in liquid media, or performing specific procedures where aerosolization is expected,the use of respiratory protective equipment, gloves and gowns may be appropriate. The most recentstandards for laboratory practices should be followed.

VI. Healthcare Worker Training

All health care workers are to receive periodic TB education appropriate for their work responsibilitiesand duties and should include epiderniology of TB in the facility, mode of transmission, pathogenesis,diagnosis, and occupational risk for tuberculosis. The training should also describe work practices thatreduce the likelihood of transmitting Mycobacterium tuberculosis in the healthcare setting. The trainingmust be given to all those who work at the VA Medical Center who are at risk for the transmission oftuberculosis. All training is to follow the latest written regulatory requirements of valid oversight bodiessuch as OSHA.

VII. Healthcare Worker Counseling And Screening

All healthcare workers should be counseled regarding tuberculosis disease and tuberculosis infection.This should include information about the increased risk to immunocompromised persons for developingactive tuberculosis disease.

VIU. Personnel Health

A. TB Screening using most current CDC methodology

1. Prior to employment, TST results are required for covered employees who work in theVHA- For any TST done outside the Personnel Health Unit on station, appropriate written documentationmust be provided as detained by the Personnel Health Physician.

2. Interval TST screening as detained by risk assessment as outlined in the most recent CDCguidance should be conducted.

3. TST is recommended at the time of separation for all employees

4. Follow all pertinent VACO Directives and Manual references related to TB screening

Page 685: VA guide -2009

13

B. Record keeping

1. Record keeping is critical for the long term needs of the employee, station, and regulatorycompliance

2. Record keeping to comply with VHA directives, manuals, and valid regulatory agencies'requirements

C. Return to work clearance for health care workers with S/KI TB

1. At a minimum, return to work clearance should follow current CDC guidelines

2. Employees must be monitored for lack of infectiousness

D. Healthcare Worker TST Conversions

The facility must track and evaluate TST conversions in order to document possible episodes oftransmission of tuberculosis in the healthcare setting, to define the facility risk assessment category and toidentify facility TST conversion rates.

IX. Coordination with Health Department

It is critical that VA facilities coordinate all phases of tuberculosis control with appropriate healthdepartment authorities. Prompt reporting to public health authorities is a critical component of TBcontrol. It is most critical that the discharge planning for individual patients be done in close alignmentwith community health officials.

X. Child Day Care

For facilities with child day care facilities state and local guidelines regarding tuberculosis screeningand/or tuberculosis control programs should be followed.
