Book excerpt: Introduction: A mixture of 50% nitrous oxide and 50% oxygen is widely used during short surgical procedures. However, some very severe side effects are related to long term exposure to nitrous oxide (e.g. in intensive care or hospital personnel). In Austria, the professional use of anesthetic gases is controlled via the MAK-value (maximum working place concentration), which consists of a short-term limitation (400ppm) and a long-term limitation (100ppm). Methods: The application system (Excidiou2122, Linde Group) is designed to eliminate nitrous oxide from the room air efficiently, by means of a scavenging system. The aim of the study was to investigate whether the Austrian work place concentrations for nitrous oxide are exceeded. 36 male healthy volunteers were included in this study. Volunteers were requested to inhale nitrous oxide via face mask for 15 minutes. Nitrous oxide concentration was analyzed during and after inhalation at 2 measurement points in 15cm and 1m distance from the nose of the volunteer by a continuous gas analyzer. Results: The current study showed that nitrous oxide levels using the new application system partially exceeded the Austrian short-term limitation of 400ppm (29.4% of all volunteers) in 15cm distance to the face mask, which is the working area of medical personnel. 43.3% of all volunteers exceeded the long-term limitation of 100ppm at 15 cm distance from the face mask. On average, the long-term limit was exceeded for 6 minutes and by a median of 77 ppm (IQR 26-171). Conclusion: As there is no clear evidence what the toxic levels of nitrous oxide in clinical practice are, the clinical significance of these findings is open to interpretation. Further studies are needed to test this system in patients under real life working conditions.
Book Synopsis WHO Guidelines for Indoor Air Quality by :
Download or read book WHO Guidelines for Indoor Air Quality written by and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2010 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents WHO guidelines for the protection of public health from risks due to a number of chemicals commonly present in indoor air. The substances considered in this review, i.e. benzene, carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, naphthalene, nitrogen dioxide, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (especially benzo[a]pyrene), radon, trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene, have indoor sources, are known in respect of their hazardousness to health and are often found indoors in concentrations of health concern. The guidelines are targeted at public health professionals involved in preventing health risks of environmental exposures, as well as specialists and authorities involved in the design and use of buildings, indoor materials and products. They provide a scientific basis for legally enforceable standards.
Book Synopsis The Effects of Scavenging on Waste Nitrous Oxide Concentrations in Veterinary Operating Room Air by :
Download or read book The Effects of Scavenging on Waste Nitrous Oxide Concentrations in Veterinary Operating Room Air written by and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Veterinarians, their assistants, and animal researchers should consider the potential health hazards of chronic exposure to the inhalational anesthetic, nitrous oxide. Recent studies suggest that long-term human exposure to nitrous oxide can be associated with increased general health problems and reproductive difficulties. These adverse human health effects include spontaneous abortion, congenital abnormalities, kidney disease, liver disease and neurologic disease. The exposure level of medical and dental personnel to nitrous oxide in operating and treatment room air is well documented. There are however, few reports of the potential hazard to veterinary personnel. This study was conducted to determine the exposure levels to nitrous oxide in a veterinary surgery. Real-time analyses were obtained utilizing infrared spectrophotometry. Measurements were made both during scavenging and not scavenging of the waste anesthetic gas. The mean level of nitrous oxide during scavenging was significantly different from the mean during not scavenging. Furthermore, the 95 percent upper confidence limit for the scavenged mean was within the 25 parts per million standard for nitrous oxide recommended by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. The 95 percent upper confidence limit for the not scavenged mean was well above that standard. Protection of veterinary personnel and animal researchers from chronic exposure to nitrous oxide vapors, therefore, seems advisable and achievable. Complete waste anesthetic gas management and periodic monitoring programs should be established to protect personnel involved.

Download or read book Solvent Neurotoxicity written by Peter Arlien-Soborg and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1991-12-18 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solvent Neurotoxicity presents a comprehensive summary of the latest information available regarding acute and chronic neurotoxicity of a number of solvents. Ten solvents (Chloromethane; Dichloromethane; N-Hexane; Methyl Ethyl Ketone; Methyln N-Butyl Ketone; Styrene; Toluene; 1,1,1-Trichloroethane, Trichloroethylene, and Xylene) and two mixtures of solvents (White Spirit, Mixed solvent exposure) have been selected based on their widespread use, as well as the mounting evidence from research concerning the neurotoxicity of these particular solvents. Evidence is presented from animal and human experiments, clinical observations, and epidemiological studies. The various methods used to establish a neurological diagnosis are described as well, and the advantages and disadvantages of these methods are discussed. Researchers involved in solvent neurotoxicological studies, occupational hygiene specialists, epidemiologists, and trade unions and industries whose members and employees work with organic solvents will find this book to be essential in determining methods for preventing chronic toxic neuropathy, encephalopathy, and other solvent-related disorders.
