Abstract:
Objective To design a smoke purifier for laparoscopic surgery, and to test its application in reducing the use of carbon dioxide gas and reducing the concentration of harmful substances in laparoscopic surgery exhaust gas. Methods From April to September 2017, a total of 136 cases of hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo oophorectomy and pelvic lymph node dissection were divided into control group and experimental group by random number table method, with 68 cases in each group. Independent negative pressure suction pipeline was applied in the control group for direct suction. In the experimental group, the surgery exhaust gas first passed laparoscopic surgical smoke purifier, the intake pipe of which was transformed from an aseptic transfusion device. Gas would emit a sound alert when passing the double-valve one-way valve. After passing KP100 grade, KN100 grade filter element and a certain amount of protective coal pellet activated carbon, the smoke would be managed by the independent negative pressure suction pipeline. The amount of carbon dioxide gas used in the two groups and the concentration of harmful substances in the smoke of the experimental group before and after the operation were recorded. Results The amount of carbon dioxide gas used in the control group was (656.95±70.11) L, which was higher than that in the experimental group (613.70±75.63) L, and the difference was statistically significant (P< 0.01). In the experimental group, PM10, PM2.5, PM1.0, formaldehyde and total volatile organic compounds (TVOC) before the application of purifier were (206.90±30.48) μg/m3, (195.74±27.23) μg/m3, (220.22±37.60) μg/m3, (0.52±0.02) mg/m3 and (4.35±1.79) mg/m3, which were all higher than those after the application of purifier (4.26±1.02) μg/m3, (6.54±2.05) μg/m3, (7.89±3.38) μg/m3, (0.34±0.01) mg/m3and (0.31±0.17) mg/m3respectively, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.01). Conclusions The purifier can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide gas used in laparoscopic surgery, reduce the harmful substances in surgical exhaust gas and reduce the harm to the environment and medical staff.
