Do airborne contaminants increase the risk of prosthetic joint infections? In this podcast, Dr. John Harp discusses his observational study on sterile field bioburden levels in operating rooms in the United States and the risks associated with rising microbe carrying particles. Dr. Harp shares his expertise in the field, as he has a background in engineering and orthopedic surgery, and has implemented industrial cleanroom techniques in the operating room for improved patient safety. He also explains the ASHRAE 170 standard, and how the use of a settle plate technique has helped to measure viable particles in the critical zone. Listen now to discover how increased air quality standards can reduce the risk of PGI.

With special guest:

Dr. John Harp, Baptist Health, Fort Smith
