Abstract Background The aim of this study was to identify the current evidence regarding risk acquiring viral infections from gases or plumes during intra‐abdominal surgery. Peritoneal fluids may contain cellular material and virus particles. Electrocautery smoke energy devices aerosolize harmful substances Insufflation desufflation laparoscopic surgery also distribute biological material. A systematic scoping review performed assess inform safe surgical practice. Methods search PubMed...
