Prevent splash exposures to corrosive solutions by using face shields or safety goggles; avoid contact by use of impervious gloves, apron, sleeve covers, boots, other chemical-impervious equipment; where potentially injurious gaseous or aerosol air-contaminant exposures are possible, provide capture exhaust ventilation or respiratory protection

|
Volatile anesthetics. Isofluorane, halothane, nitrous oxide, enflurane
|
Use a scavenging anesthesia system to capture waste anesthetic gases; vacuum or mechanical venting of scavenging system is most effective; do not use electrocautery or other sparking equipment where oxygen and anesthetic gases are being released
