Study Notes

Medical Prevention

  • Medical prevention involves strategies aimed at averting disease and health issues before they occur.
  • It encompasses primary prevention (health promotion and risk reduction), secondary prevention (early detection and management of diseases), and tertiary prevention (reducing impacts of ongoing illness).

Microclimate Parameters

  • Microclimate is influenced by several parameters such as temperature, humidity, ventilation, and air quality.
  • An optimal microclimate supports occupant comfort and health by regulating the thermal and moisture conditions of an indoor space.

Hygienic Standards for Air Quality

  • Hygienic standards for air in populated areas are based on factors like pollutant concentration, particulate matter, and biological agents.
  • Quality standards are established to minimize exposure to harmful substances and ensure occupants’ health and well-being.

Climate Determinants

  • The climate of an area is determined by factors including geographic location, elevation, proximity to water bodies, and prevailing wind patterns.
  • Seasonal variations and historical weather data also contribute to the climate's characteristics.

Living Room Conditions in Cold Season

  • Permissible relative humidity in a living room during winter is typically between 30% and 60% to ensure comfort and prevent moisture-related problems.
  • Air velocity should ideally be low (around 0.1 to 0.2 m/s) to minimize drafts and maintain warmth in living spaces.
