🚀 Today we launch our open-access database of healthcare-related environmental impact assessments in conjunction with our new paper in @TheLancetPlanet Here's what we know so far 👉🏽 thelancet.com/journals/lanpl… Explore the database at healthcarelca.com (1/14)
📈 Just added! Lightfoot et al. quantify environmental impacts of anesthetic drug trays in Australia. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Nguyen et al. quantify environmental impacts of phosphate replacement in Australia, comparing IV and oral repletion. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Poh et al. quantify environmental impacts of anaesthetic breathing circuits in Singapore. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Pioche et al. quantify environmental impacts of gastroscopes in France. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Jones et al. quantify environmental impacts of skin lesion assessment in New Zealand, comparing virtual and in-person service provision. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Irwin et al. quantify environmental impacts of Western Australia's public health system in Australia, finding that WA Health was responsible for 8% of WA's total carbon footprint. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Cannon et al. quantify environmental impacts of adult tonsillectomy in United Kingdom, finding an average procedure to emit 41 kgCO2e (55% utilities, 17% consumables, 14% transport). 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Nakarai et al. quantify environmental impacts of adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery in United States. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! John et al. quantify environmental impacts of a transurethral resection of bladder tumour pathway in The United Kingdom. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/database #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Donahue et al. show that disposable caps are more carbon-intensive than reusable caps in the USA (with limited evidence to suggest they are superior from a SSI prevention perspective). 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery
📈 Just added! Chang et al. quantify environmental impacts of operating room bed covers and lift sheets in The United States, with reusable linens found to have a markedly lower carbon footprint than their single-use counterparts. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery
📈 Just added! Spil et al. quantify impacts of neonatal delivery methods in The UK & Netherlands, showing that analgesia-related emissions for vaginal birth ranged from 0.08 (opioids) to 237 kgCO2e (nitrous oxide). 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Fennell-Wells et al. quantify environmental impacts of nitrous oxide sedation for community dental appointments in South Wales: 93-95kgCO2e per 30 minutes of delivery! 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Grothaus et al. quantify environmental impacts of open carpal tunnel release in 🇺🇸, finding cases performed in the procedure room to have 60% lower carbon footprint than those in the operating room (13 vs 32 kgCO2e/case)! 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery
📈 Just added! Curran et al. quantify environmental impacts of herpes zoster-related healthcare resource utilization in United States: 67,000-107,000 tCO2e in the US population aged ≥50 per year. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Sillcox et al. quantify environmental impacts of surgical preoperative evaluations for benign foregut disease in United States, comparing in-person and telemedicine consults. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! McClintic et al. quantify environmental impacts of annual meeting of the American Academy of Ophthalmology (@aao_ophth) in The United States, comparing in-person and virtual meetings. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Elli et al. quantify environmental impacts of esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) and colonoscopy in Italy, estimating a carbon cost of 5.43 kg and 6.71 kgCO2e per procedure, respectively. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare
📈 Just added! Suresh et al. quantify environmental impacts of implementation of the Green Impact Toolkit within dental practice in the United Kingdom. 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare @brettduane2
📈 Just added! Savoldelli et al. quantify environmental impacts of heart failure appointments in Italy, finding that one televisit would reduce emissions from 9.77 to 0.41 kgCO2e 🔎 it at: healthcarelca.com/gallery #sustainablehealthcare @Studies_HTI
