Although there is a recognised need for routine monitoring of the exposure of operating theatre staff to waste anaesthetic gases, there is as yet no standard method for carrying out such measurements. We have assessed a commercial version of one proposed sampling system--the evacuated canister--by testing it in the laboratory and also using it to carry out pilot surveys in operating theatres. We encountered many difficulties in using the system; some of these were caused by design faults in the commercial equipment, but others are inherent in the concept of using an evacuated canister for personal sampling.
尽管人们已经认识到有必要对手术室工作人员接触废麻醉气体的情况进行常规监测，但目前尚无进行此类测量的标准方法。我们通过在实验室测试并在手术室进行试点调查，对一种提议的采样系统——抽空罐——的商用版本进行了评估。我们在使用该系统时遇到了许多困难；其中一些是由商用设备的设计缺陷造成的，但其他一些困难则是使用抽空罐进行个人采样这一概念所固有的。
