摘要

背景在 COVID-19 大流行开始时，由于未知的病毒危害，提出了疏散手术烟雾的新建议。我们评估了围手术期注册护士和手术技师/技师对手术烟雾的了解程度，并确定了 COVID 流行前后的排烟措施。采用均值和百分比对描述性数据进行分析。结果我们发现，人们对手术烟雾危害的认识存在差距，排烟设备使用率低，缺乏排烟政策，手术室几乎没有空气质量或暴露监测。结论对领导、教育和研究的启示可为围手术期人员提供更好的无手术烟雾危害的工作环境。

Surgical smoke knowledge and practices before and after onset of COVID-19: A national survey of OR personnel

Background

At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, new recommendations to evacuate surgical smoke were made due to unknown viral hazards. We evaluated perioperative registered nurses’ and surgical technicians/technologists’ knowledge of surgical smoke and determined smoke evacuation practices before and after the onset of COVID.

Methods

An electronic survey was developed, validated, and distributed nationally. Means and percentages were used for analysis of descriptive data. For comparison analyses, repeated measures were conducted on continuous variables with paired t-tests and mixed factor ANOVAs.

Results

We found gaps in knowledge regarding surgical smoke hazards, low evacuation device usage, lack of smoke evacuation policies, and little to no air quality or exposure monitoring in ORs. Smoke evacuation practices did not change significantly following the onset of COVID-19.

Conclusions

Implications for leadership, education, and research may provide perioperative personnel with improved work environments without surgical smoke hazards.

期刊介绍： The objective of this new online journal is to serve as a multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed source of information related to the administrative, economic, operational, safety, and quality aspects of the ambulatory and in-patient operating room and interventional procedural processes. The journal will provide high-quality information and research findings on operational and system-based approaches to ensure safe, coordinated, and high-value periprocedural care. With the current focus on value in health care it is essential that there is a venue for researchers to publish articles on quality improvement process initiatives, process flow modeling, information management, efficient design, cost improvement, use of novel technologies, and management.
