The New Edition of the ANSI Z136.3 Is Now Available

The newest edition of the ANSI Z136.3 American National Standard of Laser Safety in Health Care is now available. It is nationally recognized as the definitive document on laser safety in all health care environments, providing guidance for the safe use of lasers for diagnostic, cosmetic, preventative and therapeutic applications where bodily structure or function is altered or symptoms are relieved.

This standard is applicable to any location where a health care laser system (HCLS) is used as a medical device, including hospital facilities, ambulatory surgery centers, individual medical, dental and veterinarian offices, and non-medical locations, such as salons and spas.

Extensively revised to reflect current thinking and practice, updates to the Z136.3-2024 include:

• Harmonization with the ANSI Z136.1 "Safe Use of Lasers".
• Clarification concerning signage.
• Updates to the informative appendices.
• Updated references to International Standards.
