What is a Class B chamber according to NFPA 99?

Multiplace, multiple human occupancy
No human occupancy
Single human occupancy
Animal use only

The correct answer is: Single human occupancy

A Class B chamber, as defined by NFPA 99 (National Fire Protection Association), is specifically designed for single human occupancy. These chambers are intended for therapeutic or clinical treatments and must comply with particular safety and operational standards. The classification delineates the type of environments that can safely facilitate hyperbaric oxygen therapy while ensuring that appropriate protocols and safety measures are adhered to, particularly for single patients. This classification highlights key differences in design, functionality, and operational capabilities compared to other class types, which may accommodate multiple occupants or not include human occupancy at all. The understanding of this classification is crucial for hyperbaric technologists, as it impacts the safety protocols and operational procedures they must follow in clinical practice.
