Sermas reduces environmental impact with new anesthesia techniques

Initiatives Reducing emissions In procedures Anesthesia In the hospital centers in the health service centers in Madrid (Serma), it was detailed by the General Assistant Director, Medina Quintana, at the session of the Madrid Association. Hospitals like October 12, La Paz or Ramón y Cajal “at the forefront of the technology application They prefer sustainability“You are separated.

“In particular, these hospitals are integrating techniques such as Total anesthesia inside Or reduce the use of volatile gases, and techniques that not only improve patient safety, but also Reducing this environmental impactHe explained in the answer to the question posed by the deputy Marta Carmona is one of the most Madrid.

“Continuous Training for Professionals” does not remain, with Training programs In Sermas Hospitals, which aims to “update medical teams” on best practices in Reducing emissions and Implementing sustainable technologies In anesthesia procedures. In addition, Quintana pointed out that these sustainability measures are not limited to “effective use of anesthesia resources”, but for example, improvement Energy consumption in chiróganos And the use of more efficient equipment contributes to reducing environmental effect.

“With regard to technological innovation, in many Madrid’s public network hospitals such as Henaris University Hospital or Princess Hospital The progress was largely He said: “In the use of control and recycling systems from narcotic gases.” Families can be reused In future interventions, avoid liberalization of the environment.

The practices that are being implemented in Madrid hospitals

Almudena Quintana also put the focus on what I considered “fixed steps” by the Madrid government in “integrating” Advanced technologies And modifying practices inside the operating rooms. San Carlos Clinical HospitalHe pointed out that a Anesthesia anesthesia program With “a comprehensive approach to active management of resources and improving the use of flying anesthesia”. “This practice has proven effective not only to reduce gas emissions, but also Improving patient safety Improving operating costs. “

So, La Paz Hospital A comprehensive plan to reduce emissions in Anesthesia proceduresWhich includes updating the equipment to make it more efficient in gas consumption. Meanwhile, 12 de October Hospital gave priority to using anesthesia in vein instead of volatile anesthesia, as shown.

Finally, Ramón Y CAJAL Hospital focused on Improvement at times For management and in adopting reinstate systems, which allows for increased capture and reuse, and reduce emissions and Improving efficiency“.
