The dangers are clear. So is the solution.

According to multiple studies, surgical smoke presents a significant danger to your staff.

  • More than 150 hazardous chemicals are found in laser plume.1
  • The amount of surgical smoke produced in the OR daily is equal to 27–30 cigarettes.†,2
  • Surgical smoke creates up to two times more respiratory issues for nurses than the general population.‡,3
