For those of you who have medical schools and/or hospitals, please recognize that in 2021 there were an estimated 105 surgical fires. The number has been reduced since 2000 from more than 500 to the 105, but that is still too many. The Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation has an excellent awareness video – free on its website.

Another medical hazard to control.
Stay safe out there.
