  • Title: [Nitrous oxide in the working environment of anaesthetic personnel. A gas chromatographic analysis (author's transl)].
    Author: Hövener B, Link J.
    Journal: Anaesthesist; 1978 Aug; 27(8):392-6. PubMed ID: 696986.
    Abstract:
    Nitrous oxide as well as halothane is hazardous for organ dysfunction in chronically exposed man. It is necessary for each anaesthetist, in cooperation with the hospital authorities, to take care to eliminate overflow not only of halothane but also of nitrous oxide from anaesthetia locations. Using gas chromatography, we studied the concentration of nitrous oxide during routine daily work in the environment of anaesthetic personnel. With our method of discharging anaesthetic gases, we were able to reduce the concentration of nitrous oxide.
