Abstract

In hospital, false ceilings are a source of Aspergillus. A huge amount of spores may be suspended specially during their demolition near immunocompromised patients who are at risk to develop severe invasive aspergillosis (IA). Airway disinfection allows the no directed spraying of a disinfectant on surfaces contained into a determined volume.
