Unité mobile de soins pour la prise en charge d’infections à transmission aérienne

A mobile care unit has been designed for infectious patients care in a humanitarian setting. Six individual compartments are grouped together in the main tent of 54 m(2) under negative air pressure. The principle of walking from clean to dirty is respected. The main indications are bacterial or viral infections with airborne transmission and an epidemic potential. The operating situations of this prototype, which has not yet been tested in the field, and its constraints in an underdeveloped country are presented.
