The risk of fire is high when using a source of ignition (electrosurgical units, lasers, fiber optic light sources, high-speed drills/burs...) in combination with the use of a combustion source (cloths, towels...) and the use of an oxidizer (oxygen, air, nitrous oxide...).

To reduce the risk of fire:

•Do not use electrocauterization procedures or other ignition sources until the skin is completely dry.

•Remove any soaked material, gauze, or gowns before starting the procedure.

•Do not use excessive amounts and avoid allowing the solution to accumulate in skin folds, under the patient, or soak bed sheets or other materials in direct contact with the patient.

•When applying occlusive dressing to areas previously exposed to 96° Sanitizing Alcohol, be especially careful to ensure there is no excess product before applying the dressing.

•Reduce oxygen supply or any other oxidizer to the minimum necessary. Procedures performed on the head, neck, and upper chest (above T5) and the use of an ignition source near an oxidizer put the patient at risk of suffering a surgical fire.
