Background As climate change escalates with increasing health impacts, health care must address its carbon footprint.
The first critical step is understanding the sources and extent of emissions from commonly utilized clinical care pathways.
Methods We used attributional process-based life-cycle analysis to quantify CO2 equivalent emissions associated with the delivery of Baxter’s HomeChoice automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) in Australia.
