There is great concern about the possible harmful effects of exposure to volatile anesthetics. The current study aimed at evaluating, for the first time, the effects of occupational exposure to anesthetic gases on physicians who work in operating rooms, by determining several inflammatory cytokines.
Plasma inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, -6, -8, -10, -12, TNF-α) were investigated in 30 individuals who were allocated into two groups of 15: the exposed group, consisting of operating room medical personnel exposed to a mixture of anesthetic gases for 3 years, and a control group composed of medical personnel not exposed to anesthetic gases. The concentrations of volatile anesthetics were measured in the operating room by means of an infrared portable analyzer
Our findings suggest an increase of the pro-inflammatory IL-8 (p<0.05) in medical personnel exposed to high concentrations of anesthetic gases, even for a relatively short period.
人们非常关注接触挥发性麻醉剂可能产生的有害影响。本研究首次旨在通过测定几种炎性细胞因子，评估手术室工作的医生职业接触麻醉气体的影响。
对30名个体进行血浆炎性细胞因子（IL-1β、-6、-8、-10、-12、TNF-α）研究，将其分为两组，每组15人：暴露组，由接触麻醉气体混合物3年的手术室医务人员组成；对照组，由未接触麻醉气体的医务人员组成。通过红外便携式分析仪在手术室测量挥发性麻醉剂的浓度。
我们的研究结果表明，即使在相对较短的时间内，接触高浓度麻醉气体的医务人员中促炎细胞因子IL-8有所增加（p<0.05）。
