Conversion of positive ‐pressure cardiac catheterization and electrophysiology laboratories to a novel 2‐zone negative‐pressure system during COVID‐19 pandemic

In this report, we describe a novel, quick, readily implantable, and resource‐friendly approach on how to secure air quality in catheterization and electrophysiology laboratories by converting a positive‐pressu re ventilation room to a two‐zone negative ventilation system to minimize the risk of transmission.
