German term or phrase: Raumzelle
medizinische Raumzelle
Clare Coupland (X)
box or room module
Explanation:
Isolation room is not correct because the Germ term for this is Isolierzimmer or even Isolierstation.
Raumzelle means a modular room, as e.g. on an ICU, also known as a box (since it looks like one). The reference even has a nice picture of it.

medizinische Verfahren aus - der Patient wird isoliert in einer keimfrei gemachten Raumzelle
behandelt -‚ doch steht immer der Mann mit seinen Empfindungen im Mittelpunkt.
