Lighting in Psychiatric Hospitals

Lighting in Psychiatric Hospitals, Anders Bru, Concept Manager Human Centric Lighting,Glamox AS, Oslo, Norway Blue Blocked Light for Psychiatric Hospitals The basic idea of this Human Centric Lighting design is to use artificial lighting to achieve the benefits that a natural day/night cycle has on the human body. Daylight varies in intensity and color temperature throughout the day, and these variations are something we want to incorporate into indoor environments, to recreate the effects of the daylight with electrical lighting. We have the cool white light in the morning and the virtual/biological darkness in the blue-blocked light in the evening. The development of Blue-Blocked Lighting (BBL) design is based on trials where patients have tested orange goggles as a way to mitigate manic symptoms. Tone Henriksen is a psychiatrist at Valen Hospital and a PhD candidate at the University of Bergen. Her research shows that people with bipolar disorder are sensitive to blue light, widespread in daylight. In the trial, 22 patients got orange goggles that they were told to wear from 18:00 to 08:00 for one week while they were having a manic episode. The control group received normal shades. After only three days, the patients’ status was significantly improved. Copying these results using cognitive and conversational therapy would take significantly longer. However, 7 out of 22 participants would not wear the glasses. This indicates that the concept is good, but that it is not ideal for this target group. The best solution would be to use blue-blocked light as part of the lighting solution. St. Olav’s University Hospital Case study St. Olav’s University Hospital in Norway recently opened a new psychiatric clinic with two similar wings, one wing with standard LED lighting and one wing with Blue-Blocked light. NTNU (Norwegian University of Science and technology) are conducting a RTC to test the effectiveness of the evening blue-depleted light environment. During daytime, standard white light is applied, and from 18.30 to 08.00 the next morning, a blue-blocked amber light is illuminating the hospital. At 18:30 a window filter goes down automatically to block out the blue wavelengths of the natural light. If necessary, doctors can “prescribe” BBL to individual rooms at any time of the day through a control panel in the staff room. Patients can voluntarily expose themselves to bright, cool white light (light shower) during the day to enhance mood and concentration, and to shift their daily rhythm forward in a “Daylight corner” Illuminance level: 8.000 lux at 45 cm, Fixed at 6500 K. he hospital has chosen luminaries with anti-ligature properties. When it comes to light properties the luminaires have a four channel RGB-White solution that produces white light with CRI more than 90, and the option to produce an amber light without blue wavelengths In December 2019 a review study done by an group of international researchers was published in the medical paper Bipolar Disorder. The study recommends using a dynamic LED light system to create a blue-depleted evening light similar to a “virtual darkness” as a part of the treatment for bipolar patients.
