Surgical fluid/smoke waste management systems are designed to safely capture and eliminate hazardous fluids and smoke generated during procedures using electrosurgery, cautery, or lasers. These systems help reduce exposure risks for healthcare workers by filtering and disposing of contaminated waste in real time, ensuring a cleaner operating environment.

These systems are typically regulated as medical devices, often requiring compliance with safety and performance standards depending on the jurisdiction. They are commonly supplied as integrated units, combining suction and disposal functions, and are primarily used in operating rooms, pathology labs, and surgical clinics to maintain air quality and hygiene.
