I work for a hospital and was asked by my boss the other day to install some recessed lights over the patient care area in the Cardiac Cathorization Lab. The lights have open lamps (PAR30 floods). I thought I read somewhere that lights over a patient care area had to be enclosed. According to the staff there is not anesthesia administered in this area except in emergencies (very rare). Does anyone know of any code written to address this issue?
