Example sentences:
Engineers have made rapid improvements to Wellington Hospital's intensive care unit (ICU) - converting a new six-bed extension into a large negative pressure room and building two new air locks in just a few days. Such work could normally take months from planning to completion. (NZ Herald)
Sheriff Javier Salazar has confirmed one inmate at the Bexar County jail will be tested for COVID-19. According to Salazar, the inmate has some signs of the flu and will be tested soon. In the meantime, he has been put in one of the four negative-pressure rooms at the jail. (NEWS4SASA)
"But what about when you have dozens that coming in over the day? And it's not just the COVID-19 patients. It's the flu patients, it's the coughs and the cold symptoms that we're seeing every single day multiple times a day," Miller said. "When you first see them, what are you going to do with them? You can't put them all into that negative pressure room that the ER has." (FierceHealthCare)

neigiamo slėgio patalpa
Jei kalbama tik apie patalpas, kur guli ligoniai, tai būtų galima versti kaip neigiamo slėgio palata, tačiau neigiamas slėgis gali būti sudaromas bet kurioje ligoninės patalpoje, įskaitant laukiamuosius, prausimosi patalpas, priimamuosius ir t.t., todėl jei kalbama bendrąja prasme, geriau būtų rašyti neigiamo slėgio patalpa.
Definition from
News Medical:
Negative pressure rooms, also called isolation rooms, are a type of hospital room that keeps patients with infectious illnesses, or patients who are susceptible to infections from others, away from other patients, visitors, and healthcare staff.<br /><br />They are called negative pressure rooms because the air pressure inside the room is lower than the air pressure outside the room. This means that when the door is opened, potentially contaminated air or other dangerous particles from inside the room will not flow outside into non-contaminated areas.
Example sentences:
Negative pressure rooms do not have to be individual rooms for a single patient at a time. Common negative pressure environments in hospitals can include waiting areas, bathrooms, and triage areas, where infections can easily be spread (News Medical)
