Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Application Registration Form

  This form includes laboratory findings such as COHb, MetHb, PaO2, PaCO2, pH, HCO3, SpO2, Hg that may be affected in the person exposed to surgical smoke. In the study, it was examined whether exposure to surgical smoke affected these values.

  1 day

• Questionnaire on Reported Health Problems

  The questionnaire form, which was created by the researcher by reviewing the literature on the subject, includes 45 health problems that may occur in the short term as a result of exposure to surgical smoke and a scale related to the frequency of experiencing these problems. in the questionnaire, the every day option shows the maximum value, the never option shows the minimum value
