Carbon footprints of various subtotal tonsillectomy techniques.
Objectives: The aim of the present study was to assess greenhouse gas emissions for the main current subtotal tonsillectomy techniques.
Materials and methods: A retrospective study was conducted in 2 French university hospital pediatric ENT departments in 2022. The target techniques were radiofrequency with single-use or reusable needle, coblation, and dissection by cold instruments or by bipolar forceps. The medical devices required by each technique were listed and respective greenhouse gas emissions (carbon footprint, in kg eCO2) were calculated, according to weight, energy consumption and place of production.
Results: Coblation generated a carbon footprint of 8.6kg eCO2, versus 0.1-0.2kg eCO2 for the other techniques.
Conclusion: Greenhouse gas emissions in subtotal tonsillectomy differ greatly according to technique. Bipolar dissection and radiofrequency have a smaller footprint than coblation. This type of data, which needs to be weighed over time according to medical benefit, should be systematically taken into account in choosing hardware for surgery.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
