Sustainable Anaesthesia in Peninsula

Working collaboratively to reduce carbon emissions produced by anaesthesia. Off-shoot of @ukswarm Art R.Eveleigh

[TRA2SH Collaboration @tra2sh1]

In a survey of anaesthetists’ views of operating room recycling, the greatest barriers were identified as:
“1.inadequate recycling facilities, 2.negative staff attitudes, and
3. inadequate information on how to recycle waste”

YOU COULD CHANGE ALL 3!!!

Decarbonising surgical pathways

Replacing with reusable surgical gowns saves 1kg, surgical drapes 0.4kg CO₂ emissions

≅11,500,000 operations across the UK every year

Forbes McGain found that anaesthesia waste was a quarter of total operating suite waste. and that almost 60% of anaesthesia general waste could be recycled.

#OperationCleanUp22 aims to improve through Refuse, Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.

Great to see data demonstrating the benefits of FGFs of 6L when using TIVA

[Morgan Back @Morgansb]

Really pleased to have been able to present @SIVAnaesthesia
Our audit data and UK CO2 calculations on why FGFs of 6L.min really is the best with TIVA. Based on the fantastic work of @propofoldream
Thanks to @DrCliffShelton & Dr Matt Gaines

[George Zhong @propofoldream]

Dear colleagues,

Do you also hate discarding lots of propofol? Not sure how much to draw up?

We wrote a simple App that estimates how much propofol a case might need.

We hope this can help with reducing propofol waste during TIVA.

Propofol Dreams is now on App store 😁😁

[GHASP @GHASProject]

Here is a fantastic app to make TIVA even more environmentally friendly!

We will be tuning in!

[S.E.A.S.N @SEASN12]

Very excited to bring you this collaborative afternoon from both SEASN and CoMMA this week!

Delighted to be back to face to face meetings, but join https://t.co/uur1fUTEAq if you need to!

Open to all members of the maternity MDT - spread the word!

[British Journal of Anaesthesia @BJAJournals]

What a waste! The carbon footprint of N2O leaks from pipeline systems can be larger than actual clinical use. Clinicians can help by bridging the gap between N2O procurement and clinical use

An estimate of the nitrous used by a labouring partiuent ⬇️

3kgCO2e per minute = 17km driving in a 🚗

Time to use it as efficiently as possible:
- demand valves
- scavenging/capturing
- patient and staff education

Well done to @GSTTnhs for their groundbreaking #GreenProcurement #GreenNHSProcurement PIN.

£5 million well spent on overhauling the NHS's clinical products for reusables and a #GreenNHS.
