Enfermería Clínica is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that is a useful and necessary tool for nurses from the different areas of nursing (healthcare, administration, education and research) as well as for healthcare professionals involved in caring for persons, families and the community. It is the only Spanish nursing journal that mainly publishes original research. Its objectives are to promote the dissemination of knowledge, promote the development of evidence in care and contribute to the integration of research in clinical practice. These objective is pursued throughout the different sections that comprise the Journal: Original Articles and Short Original Articles, Reviews, Patient Care and Letters to the Editor. There is also an Evidence-Based Nursing section that includes two kinds of articles: comments about original articles of special interest written by experts, and evidence synthesis articles based on bibliographic reviews.

The journal is included in National Library of Medicine/Pubmed/Medline, Scopus/SCImago Journal Rank(SJR), Emerging Sources Citation Index (ESCI) (Clarivate Analytics), CINHAL, Elsevier Bibliographic Databases, EBSCO Publishing, Biblioteca Nacional de Ciencias de la Salud, CSIC/IME, IBECS, Latindex, CUIDEN, Dialnet, Google Scholar Metrics.

Abstract

Objective

This research aims to determine the correlation of bioaerosol pollution with temperature, humidity, and lighting in the ICU for measurement in morning and midday.

Methods

The research was an observational analytic with a cross-sectional study design conducted in Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo hospital. The sample of the research consisted of 8 ICU rooms. The data were analyzed using the Spearman test.

Results

The total of bioaerosol in the morning ranged from 320–1885CFU/m3 and the total of bioaerosol in midday ranged from 366–1895CFU/m3. The result showed that the humidity factor correlated with the total of microbial (p=0.006) but the temperature (p=0.471) and lighting (p=0.232) did not correlate with the total of bioaerosol for morning measurement. While the temperature, humidity and lighting factors correlated with the total of bioaerosol (p=0.000) for midday measurement.

Conclusion

The quality of bioaerosol correlates with temperature, humidity, and lighting. For further improvement designing well-built HVAC.
