We researched whether the obstetric operating room (OR) qualified as a fire-risk environment so as to take preventive measures accordingly.
We analyzed a series of iatrogenic burns inflicted during birth by collecting clinical data and comparing it with known OR fire risk factors and with other factors that repeated in all cases in search of unique characteristics of the obstetric OR.
All three cases shared in common the same type of oxygen-rich open ventilation system, alcohol-based prepping solution, and the hastiness of cesarean delivery while spontaneous vaginal delivery was already in progress.
The obstetric OR is, as suspected, a fire-prone zone in more ways than the regular OR. Therefore, preventive measures should be undertaken and awareness for the possibility for such occurrences should be raised.
我们研究产科手术室（OR）是否属于火灾风险环境，以便据此采取预防措施。
我们通过收集临床数据，分析一系列分娩期间发生的医源性烧伤，并将其与已知的手术室火灾风险因素以及所有病例中重复出现的其他因素进行比较，以寻找产科手术室的独特特征。
所有三例病例都有相同类型的富氧开放式通风系统、酒精基皮肤准备溶液，以及在自然阴道分娩已经开始的情况下进行剖宫产的仓促情况。
正如所怀疑的那样，产科手术室比普通手术室更容易发生火灾。因此，应采取预防措施，并提高对此类事件发生可能性的认识。
