Staff education compared with active real-time waste segregation to reduce the environmental impact of hip and knee arthroplasty: a multicentre study

Staff education compared with active real-time waste segregation to reduce the environmental impact of hip and knee arthroplasty: a multicentre study

Aims: Arthroplasty has been shown to generate the most waste among all orthopaedic subspecialties, and it is estimated that hip and knee arthroplasty generate in excess of three million kg of waste annually in the UK. Infectious waste generates up to ten times more CO2 compared with recycled waste,...
