At a time when Delhi’s air pollution continues to take a visible toll on public health, over 100 senior doctors and medical specialists from across the city gathered at The Oberoi, New Delhi, to discuss a concern that often goes unnoticed—indoor air pollution.
The closed-door interaction was hosted by DP Purifier in collaboration with Heal Foundation and focused on the growing impact of polluted indoor air in hospitals, ICUs, OPDs, clinics and other high-risk healthcare spaces.
Doctors at the session shared on-ground experiences, noting that poor indoor air qualityis increasingly contributing to higher infection rates, slower patient recovery and a rise in respiratory and immunity-related complications.
Several experts pointed out that while outdoor pollution dominates headlines, patients and healthcare workers spend long hours indoors, making clean indoor air a critical part of preventive healthcare.
The evening featured an engaging session by German air scientist Mr. Jaseeb, who broke down the science of indoor air pollutants in simple terms. He explained why conventional floor-standing air purifiers often fail in busy medical environments and how ceiling-mounted systems ensure better air circulation and coverage in critical zones.
