A little bit of competition can go a long way to improving emissions! ANZCA #asm24bris ESN concurrent session Thanks Dr Ben Dunne for a fantastic presentation!

Thoracic surgeon Ben Dunne presenting online at #ASM24BRIS and #RACS24 today is 👏👏👏- and not holding back either. 'The move away from reusable is not evidence-based, has no strong basis in infection control, and is largely industry driven'. Surgeons must get involved! 🌏

Surgeon Ben Dunne of Peter Mac, reminding us that the policies encouraging single use items in hospitals are just a pile of garbage. Literally. #RACS24 Ryan Park MP

Become an ANZCA examiner, play 'serious games' to make teaching interesting, and stay tuned for AI in TPS! #ASM24BRIS

#ASM24Bris isn't quite over, but we caught up with some of the lovely organising committee members putting together the 2025 meeting in Cairns #ASM25CNS. They can't wait to welcome you to FNQ next May. youtu.be/iVnrGB66_3Y

YESSSSS Jess Davies winning with QUALITATIVE RESEARCH! So proud of you!

And that’s it. #ASM24BRIS

Just back from a fabulous ANZCA #ASM24BRIS to find the ANZCA Bulletin in the mail box. This letter from me on Nitrous & #ClimateChange relevant to many discussions that took place during the Environmental Sustainability Network session. #ClimateCrisis Dr Archie 🌱🌈

Donna Freer notes 75 million 'bluey' absorbent sheets are used in Australia every year. Trials of reusable 'bluey' (which she has brought to the podium and is green 💚) show they perform just as well *and* decrease usage by 50% 🤯 #sustainability #RACS24

Whoa check out the wastage of nitrous oxide at this kids hospital …. No reason to think that same wastage isn’t occurring every where….

Keen to support environmental projects and find solutions to waste production/management? We're seeking expressions of interest from ANZCA and Faculty of Pain Med trainees for 6 committee positions on the TRA2SH Collaboration steering committee. More info: bit.ly/3ygOIRI

Retweeting this from (yikes!) two years ago. ‘Rubbish from one spinal anaesthetic. Is there a more sustainable way?’

Organised my surgical scrub hats today between emergency cases. The thing that feels special is that almost all of these were gifts. Grateful to the beautiful people who make this #neurosurgery #oncalllife work and sustain me in gratitude.
