Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for generating an air curtain. In some embodiments, a system includes an arch-shaped air outlet and an arch-shaped air inlet configured to generate an arch-shaped air curtain. The air outlet and inlet can also be configured to couple to regions of a bed, where at least a portion of one of the regions is between a head and a foot of the bed. One or more air outlet and inlet conduits can be coupled to the air outlet and inlet respectively. One or more devices that motivate air flow can be coupled to the air inlet and outlet conduits, wherein an air flow out of the air outlet is less than an air flow into the air inlet. A filter or pathogen deactivation unit configured to reduce pathogens can also be coupled to the air outlet conduit.
