Fire risk prevention for intermediate- or low-risk procedures (standard procedures for surgery at any body site)

Limit oxygen administration and concentration Avoid nitrous oxide	Manage fuels	Manage ignition sources
If an open oxygen source is used, limit oxygen concentration to ≤30%.	Allow prep solutions to dry for at least three minutes.	Protect heat sources (eg, keep the active electrode tip of the ESU in a holster, switch the laser to standby when not in use).
	Configure surgical drapes to minimize accumulation of oxygen under the drapes.

Be prepared to immediately initiate high-risk precautions if the procedure becomes high-risk (eg, imminent delivery of oxygen from an open source due to inability to maintain adequate patient oxygenation on room air).

ESU: electrosurgery unit.
