Abstract:
Occupational exposure to inhalation halogenated anesthetics is associated with adverse health effects like headache, dizziness, fatigue, altered hepatic functions, impaired redox balance, and disturbed cognitive functions. In addition, exposure duration / years positively correlates with the hepatic dysfunction and lipid peroxidation and negatively with the TAC and total MOCA score in the occupationally exposed personnel. A central high-flow scavenging system and low leakage anesthesia machines are strongly required in all the operating theaters.
