Nordic Ventilation Group was very active in 80´s and 90´s when mechanical ventilation became more common in Nordic counties. The group published several guidelines for measuring air flow rates and evaluating of the performance of ventilation. The history and objectives of the group are described in more details in the attached article (in Swedish). The group was established again 2020.
