When a hospital prepares an intravenous mixture for a patient, the entire process depends on something nobody sees: the air. Temperature, humidity, the number of particles per cubic meter and the direction air flows between rooms determine whether that preparation is safe or a risk.
A compounding center is not a room with air conditioning. It is a system where each space has a different cleanliness classification, differential pressures that keep “dirty” air out of the critical area, HEPA filtration, and controls that hold conditions stable 24 hours a day. All under standards such as ISO 14644-1 and the applicable national regulations.
Navesco carried out the refurbishment of the IMSS compounding center at the Siglo XXI National Medical Center in Mexico City, including the design and assembly of an exterior steel structure to suit the project's operating requirements. Through Clio we have also worked for PiSA Laboratories, with HVAC systems based on ISO and NOM standards. These are projects where the margin for error is zero, because there is a patient on the other side.
What sets a well-built compounding center apart is that regulatory compliance is not “added” at the end: it is designed in from the first line drawn. Personnel and material flows, airlocks, the location of air handlers and returns are all considered together, because correcting them after construction costs ten times more.
