Potential impacts of optimised care pathways on carbon impact of anaesthesia consultation—A monocenter prospective study
Our study highlights the potential for significant reductions in the eCO<sub>2</sub> of pre-anaesthesia consultations. The adaptation of the care pathway would largely involve grouping consultations and developing teleconsultations. These potential savings in greenhouse gas emissions are in the same order of magnitude as not using desflurane in the operating theatre and could be the next step towards greener anaesthesia.
