Surgical Smoke Coalition

Imagine a workplace where every breath you took was a risk to your health – would you still do that job? For healthcare professionals across Europe, this isn’t an option due to surgical smoke in their operating rooms. Surgical smoke exposes our healthcare heroes to risks they shouldn’t be facing, like chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder (COPD). Together, we can pledge for smoke-free operating rooms and help protect those who dedicate their lives to protecting us.

Saviez-vous que des recherches montrent que les infirmières de bloc opératoire courent un risque plus élevé d’asthme persistant sévère que les autres infirmières* ? Cela est dû à la fumée chirurgicale, un sous-produit gazeux généré par les dispositifs chirurgicaux produisant de la chaleur, qui contient des composants chimiques augmentant le risque d’asthme et de BPCO. En conséquence, les chirurgiens et les infirmières risquent leur vie en essayant de sauver celle des autres. Nous devons tout faire pour protéger nos professionnels de la santé des dangers de la fumée chirurgicale. Engagez-vous à soutenir l’élimination de la fumée chirurgicale de nos blocs opératoires : https://bit.ly/452a1D4 *https://bit.ly/3KmgPBN #FuméeChirurgicale #EngagementFuméeChirurgicale #EvacuationFuméeChirurgicale #SurgicalSmokeEvacuation #SurgicalSmokeCoalition

Did you know that research shows that operating room nurses are at higher risk of severe persistent asthma than other nurses*? This is because surgical smoke, a gaseous by-product caused by heat-producing surgical devices, contains chemicals that increase the risk of asthma and COPD. As a result, surgeons and nurses risk their lives while trying to save others. We must do all we can to keep our medical professionals safe from the dangers of surgical smoke. Pledge your support to keep surgical smoke out of our operating rooms: https://bit.ly/452a1D4 *https://bit.ly/3KmgPBN #SurgicalSmoke #SSCPledge #SurgicalSmokeCoalition #SurgicalSmokeEvacuation
