ISOFLURANE & SEVOFLURANE GAS MONITORING BADGE

ISOFLURANE & SEVOFLURANE GAS MONITORING BADGE

To comply with the COSHH Regulations 2002 and to protect the health of your staff you must ensure that levels of personal exposure to anaesthetic gases and vapours in the workplace are consistently below the Work Exposure Limits (WELs) that apply and are ideally as low as is "reasonably practicable". Having an appropriate annual anaesthetic monitoring program in place is also a specific requirement for RCVS Practice Standards and Training practices and is strongly advised by the HSE.

An integral part of this process, and the only certain way of knowing that the Vets and Nurses in your practice are not exposed to anaesthetic vapours, is the regular monitoring of anaesthetic gases in your workplace to assess their specific exposure levels.
