IDE’s aims and vision are broad and our group consists of a wide range of specialties and expertise within the medical field.<\/p>\n
We work within smaller working groups to share resources and achieve goals on various issues affecting environment and health within Ireland.<\/p>\n
The Anaesthetic Gases working group’s primary aim is to make anaesthesia more sustainable. They aim to create a network for environmental enthusiasts in anaesthesia and to reduce greenhouse gase emissions among anaesthesiologists through safe use of low flow anaesthesia, TIVA, and sparing use of N2O and Desflurane.<\/p>\n
If you have any questions or if you are interested in joining the working group, please contact anaesthetics@ide.ie<\/a>.<\/p>\n The group promotes the benefits of active transport from both health and environment perspectives and aims to inform the public conversation with evidence-based recommendations for how Irish towns and cities can improve and encourage active transport.<\/p>\n The group was recently involved in a push for cycle lanes between Cork hospitals<\/a>.<\/p>\nActive Transport<\/h2>\n
