Scope
GB/T 38800-2020 is the English-translated version of 应急医用模块化隔离单元通用技术要求.
China's national general technical requirements for modular isolation units used in emergency medicine. It specifies the terms and definitions, the requirements, and the inspection and testing. A modular isolation unit is a prefabricated negative pressure room or ward that can be transported and assembled where it is needed - beside an existing hospital, in an exhibition hall, at a border crossing - to create isolation capacity that the permanent estate does not have. The engineering is that of a negative pressure ward compressed into something that can be built off site and connected quickly: the pressure cascade between anteroom and room, the filtered extract, the sealed envelope, the interlocked doors and the monitoring. What the standard adds to the fixed-installation requirements is everything to do with being modular - the joints between units, the speed and verifiability of commissioning, and the fact that it will be assembled by people who did not design it, under pressure.

China's national general technical requirements for modular isolation units used in emergency medicine. It specifies the terms and definitions, the requirements, and the inspection and testing. A modular isolation unit is a prefabricated negative pressure room or ward that can be transported and assembled where it is needed - beside an existing hospital, in an exhibition hall, at a border crossing - to create isolation capacity that the permanent estate does not have. The engineering is that of a negative pressure ward compressed into something that can be built off site and connected quickly: the pressure cascade between anteroom and room, the filtered extract, the sealed envelope, the interlocked doors and the monitoring. What the standard adds to the fixed-installation requirements is everything to do with being modular - the joints between units, the speed and verifiability of commissioning, and the fact that it will be assembled by people who did not design it, under pressure.
This Standard specifies the requirements, inspection and testing, marking, packaging, transportation and storage of modular isolation units for emergency medical use. This Standard is applicable to modular isolation units for emergency medical use, and is not applicable to medical isolation warehouses for the isolation and transfer of infectious patients.
