Minimising carbon and financial costs of steam sterilisation and packaging of reusable surgical instruments
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to estimate the carbon footprint and financial cost of decontaminating (steam sterilization) and packaging reusable surgical instruments, indicating how that burden might be reduced, enabling surgeons to drive action towards net-zero-carbon surgery. METHODS: Car...
