Summary
This article in the Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation newsletter looks at the issues surrounding the contribution of anaesthetic gasses to healthcare pollution and emissions. The authors argue that the next patient safety movement should be sustainable healthcare. They highlight that anaesthetists have the opportunity to lead in the effort to reduce healthcare’s impact on population health, and demonstrate to the wider sector that sustainable healthcare is possible and important to the wellbeing of patients.
