Hospitals are complex environments where safety, privacy, and tranquility are essential for providing high-quality care. Managing noise pollution, maintaining patient confidentiality, and preventing gas leaks are critical challenges that significantly affect the safety and well-being of both staff and patients.

Accurate leak detection

Whether it’s gas or sound, Sorama’s cameras provide real-time visualization and accurate leak localization, allowing hospitals to identify problem areas quickly and efficiently. 

Safety & confidentiality

By addressing gas leaks and sound leaks, hospitals can create a safer and more private environment for both patients and staff. 

Acoustic comfort

Noise reduction leads to quieter spaces that support patient recovery and reduce stress levels for both patients and healthcare professionals. 

Operational efficiency

Sorama’s cameras reduce the time needed for inspections and maintenance, ensuring that hospitals remain operational without unnecessary downtime. 

Cost savings

Detecting and fixing leaks early prevents gas waste, lowers energy costs, and ensures more efficient facility operations. 

Why use Sorama’s acoustic technology? ​

Sorama’s advanced acoustic imaging technology offers hospitals a modern solution for managing both gas leaks and sound leaks.

By visualizing these problems with precision, our CAM iV64 and CAM iV64s cameras enable hospitals to create safer, quieter, and more private environments, all while improving operational efficiency and reducing costs.Investing in Sorama’s solutions allows medical facilities to improve care quality, ensuring that patients and staff alike benefit from a well-managed and controlled acoustic environment, as well as improving safety by detecting gas leaks early and accurately.  

Sorama’s acoustic cameras CAM iV64 and CAM iV64s, offer cutting-edge solutions to address these challenges.

From detecting gas leaks to pinpointing sound leaks, our technology provides hospitals with actionable data to improve safety, reduce stress, and ensure privacy.

Gas leak detection in hospitals

Hospitals rely heavily on medical gases like oxygen, nitrous oxide, and carbon dioxide for patient care, but leaks in these gases can create significant risks. Undetected gas leaks can lead to hazardous environments, causing fires, explosions, or health hazards such as asphyxiation, while also resulting in substantial financial losses due to wasted gas. By identifying gas leaks early, hospitals can improve safety, prevent costly waste, and ensure uninterrupted patient care.

Sorama’s CAM iV64 and CAM iV64s are designed to detect gas leaks quickly and accurately, even in noisy environments. By “visualizing” the sound created by gas escaping from pipes or equipment, acoustic cameras enable staff to precisely locate leaks, even when the leaks are inaudible to the human ear.

Challenges of traditional leak detection​

By identifying gas leaks early, hospitals can improve safety, prevent costly waste, and ensure uninterrupted patient care. Traditional methods for detecting gas leaks such as the soapy water test or traditional ultrasonic leak detectors are often inefficient. These methods usually require point-by-point inspections, which are time consuming and can miss small but dangerous leaks.

Sorama’s acoustic solution for gas leak detection - benefits

1. Non-intrusive detection:

Sorama’s cameras can detect leaks from a distance without disrupting operations or requiring physical contact with equipment. 

2. Precision and speed:

The real-time visualization on the camera’s display allows maintenance teams to pinpoint the exact location of leaks quickly, saving time and reducing the need for extensive manual inspections.

3. Noise resilience:

The advanced technology allows you to choose specific frequencies associated with gas leaks and conduct detailed inspections and measurements within those precise bandwidths, ensuring highly accurate detection even in busy hospital areas or environments with significant background noise.

Sound leak detection in hospitals​

Hospitals also face the challenge of maintaining a quiet and confidential environment. Patient confidentiality is critical, and excessive noise can hinder recovery and create additional stress for both patients and staff.

Sorama’s CAM iV64 and CAM iV64s are powerful tools for hospitals to locate sound leaks. By creating visual heatmaps of where sound is escaping, whether through walls, floors, or ceilings, hospitals can take targeted action to improve soundproofing and protect privacy.  

Sound challenges in hospitals

Conversations between patients and healthcare professionals often involve sensitive information that must remain private. However, inadequate soundproofing can allow these discussions to be overheard in adjacent rooms or hallways. Protecting patient confidentiality demands more than simply closing doors – it requires thorough acoustic management to eliminate sound leaks.

Sorama’s acoustic solution for sound leak detection - benefits​

1. Precise sound leak detection:

The acoustic camera pinpoints sound escape areas, helping hospitals enhance soundproofing in consultation rooms, therapy spaces, and patient areas.

2. Enhanced confidentiality:

With Sorama’s technology, hospitals can ensure that confidential discussions remain private, protecting sensitive information and strengthening patient-doctor trust. 

3. Real-time actionable data:

The Sorama CAM iV64 and CAM iV64s provide immediate feedback, allowing maintenance teams to make quick fixes and ensure privacy standards are upheld.

4. Targeted noise control​:

Hospitals can address specific noise sources, whether it’s machinery or sound leakage between rooms, ensuring a quieter and more comfortable facility. 

5. Improved patient well-being​:

Reducing noise levels in patient rooms and medical spaces leads to a more peaceful and quiet environment, ultimately promoting better recovery and patient well-being.

6. Improved patient well-being​:

Quieter spaces help medical professionals maintain focus, reduce mental and physical fatigue, and ultimately provide higher-quality care to their patients.
