Key points in selecting observation windows for medical doors

The main function of the medical door observation window is to facilitate doctors and nurses to observe the basic conditions of patients in the ward without opening the door, reducing the work procedures of medical staff. At present, the main shapes of observation windows in most hospitals are rectangular (200*800mm), square (400*600mm) and round. In addition to choosing the shape of the observation window of the hospital ward door, let\’s take a look at the differences of the observation window.

1. As far as the effect of the observation window is concerned, the longitudinal observation effect of the rectangular observation window is not as good as that of the square and circular observation windows, but the height requirements for medical staff are not high. The observation effects of circular and square observation windows of the same diameter are the same, and the area of ​​the circle is smaller than the area of ​​the square. The environment of the hospital ward directly affects the patient\’s physical recovery. A good rest environment is very helpful to the patient\’s recovery. The light transmission area of ​​a circular observation window with the same diameter is smaller than that of a square observation window.

2. Hospital ward doors are places with high requirements for cleanliness. Medical door manufacturers have designed rectangular and square observation windows with four 90-degree angles. These observation windows are easy to form dead corners. Round viewing windows, on the other hand, have no dead spots and are easier to clean.

3. The rounded shape makes people feel smooth, gentle and approachable, making them feel more comfortable. Rectangles and squares have sharp edges and corners, giving them a sense of rigor. Observation windows of various shapes have different psychological implications for patients. Ward doors need to create a more relaxed environment for patients to help them recover quickly. Circular observation windows are a good choice.
