You're At RISK
Surgical plume can carry dangerous bacteria and viruses, including HIV.
As such, they can produce upper respiratory irritation, and have
in-vitro mutagenic potential.
More than 500,000 healthcare workers are exposed to laser or electrosurgical
smoke each year in North America, including surgeons, nurses,
anesthesiologists, and surgical technologists. When the Smoke
Evacuation System is turned on, everyone can Breathe Easy.
