The authors report on pollution measures in some operating theatres and consider biological data for the hepatic and hemopoietic functions in operating room personnel and in control groups. Waste gas concentrations range from 17.3 to 22.6 ppm for enfluorane and from 500 to 1275 for NO in theatres not equipped with antipollution systems. Pollution is 3-8 times lower when a scavening system is present, while with horizontal laminar air flow exhaust in function, the gas concentration in the air is insignificant. Tests for the hepatic and hematological functions, done on 61 operating room personnel, 87 ward nurses, and 69 technicians and physicians of radiology services, do not show any significant difference between those exposed to anesthetic gases and controls.
