الوصف: Surgical smoke is a byproduct of aerosols containing several components produced by energy equipment. The characteristics of surgical smoke components produced by different types of tissues or using different kinds of energy devices vary. For example, the average diameter of smoke particles produced by electrocautery is smaller, and the possibility of viable cells and pathogens in surgical smoke produced by an ultrasonic knife is higher. According to the characteristics of its composition, surgical smoke may be an important risk factor affecting the health and safety of operating room staff and patients. The use of surgical masks, suction devices and portable smoke evacuation systems can reduce this risk to some extent. However, most operating room staff members do not implement corresponding measures to protect themselves. In this paper, the characteristics of surgical smoke and the research progress in protective measures are briefly reviewed.
