Managing the Risk from Drains and Wastewater in Healthcare Premises
13:00 - 14:00, Wednesday 3rd September 2025
This presentation will explore the role of the building drainage system on the spread of pathogens and the potential risk to patients. The main phenomena involved in this transmission route are - aerosolization, turbulence and the generation of air pressure transients which can cause pathogens to emerge from contaminated water trap seals back into the room from a range of appliances.
Presented by Professor Michael Gormley, Heriot-Watt University and chaired by Dr Susanne Surman-Lee, Leegionella Ltd.
