Compressed Gas Cylinders
Captions available
The idea
Compressed gas cylinders in the surgical suite can cause fire, explosion or toxic exposure if they are mishandled.
In practice
Store cylinders upright and secured, empty or full; never drop them or let them strike each other; transport them with protective caps on, never rolled or dragged.
Where people slip
An unsecured cylinder that falls can break its valve and become a projectile.
