About this webinar
This webinar is being put on in association with APAGBI.
Essential paediatric CPD free to members of the Association of Anaesthetists and APAGBI. Please join us for this exciting webinar to learn about and discuss the important topic of sustainability.
3 renowned speakers of differing specialties will be talking about where we are with climate change (along with the latest concerning data), and how surgery and anaesthesia can make a difference.
We will hear about the immediacy and gravity of the threat we face, and just how much we now have to do and by when. We will hear about how to reduce energy use in theatre, including the application of circular economy principles to products used within operating theatres; as well as the latest evidence on reducing our emissions from anaesthesia and the benefits of preoperative administration of oral analgesics over intravenous.
