Resumen
El ambiente visual en hospitales, especialmente en áreas de emergencia, requiere condiciones lumínicas que garanticen rapidez, precisión y seguridad. Este estudio analizó un consultorio gineco-obstétrico deemergencia de un hospital en Mendoza, Argentina, constituyendo elprimer trabajo en el país sobre la iluminación hospitalaria en este contexto. Sepropuso una metodología replicable para evaluar la iluminación, basada en unanálisis cuantitativo-cualitativo del ambiente visual, considerando las condicionesreales de uso y la percepción del personal sanitario. La metodología incluyó unrelevamiento fotométrico in situ en dos boxes, un análisis del cumplimientonormativo internacional, cuestionarios de percepción al personal sanitario y unanálisis estadístico. Los resultados mostraron diferencias en el porcentaje decumplimiento anual de las métricas de iluminación entre los dos boxes. Se hallaron diferencias significativas en la percepción de iluminancia entre los boxes. La percepción del personal no se relacionó con los valores de deslumbramiento ni con el cumplimiento normativo. El estudio aporta evidencia novedosa a partir de un caso de estudio y propone una nueva metodología replicable que integra el análisis de la iluminación natural y eléctrica, con el objetivo de mejorar el confort y desempeño visual de los profesionales, y bienestar de pacientes.
The visual environment of hospitals, especially in emergency areas, requires lighting conditions that guarantee speed, precision, and safety. This study analyzed an emergency gynecology and obstetrics room in a hospital in Mendoza, Argentina, which constitutes the first study in the country on hospital lighting in this context. A replicable methodology was proposed to assess lighting, based on a quantitative-qualitative analysis of the visual environment, considering the actual conditions of use and healthcare staff perceptions. The methodology included an in situ photometric survey in two examination rooms (boxes), an assessment of compliance with international standards, perception questionnaires for healthcare staff, and a statistical analysis. The results showed differences in the annual compliance rate with lighting metrics between the two boxes. Significant differences were found in the perception of illuminance between the rooms. Staff perception were not correlated to glare values or regulatory compliance. The study provides novel evidence from a case study and proposes a new replicable methodology that integrates the analysis of natural and electric lighting, with the aim of enhancing visual comfort and performance for healthcare professionals and improving patient well-being.
