Karolinska was ranked earlier this year as one of the 10th best hospitals in the world.
In pressure chambers any VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) i.e ethanol based products implies an obvious risk of fire. In Italy 1997 10 patients died in an accident caused by a new cleaning company that was not updated on the risk using alcohol in disinfectants in a high pressure environment. 10 patients and one nurse missed their lives in the accident.
