Authors: Mitchell H. Tsai, M.D., M.M.M., F.A.S.A., F.A.A.C.D. et al Anesthesiology July 2022, Vol. 137, 119–120. To the Editor: Using life cycle assessments, McGain et al. account for the carbon footprint of general, regional, and combined anesthesia techniques for total joint replacements in Australia. With the accounting of carbon emissions, we applaud the authors for demonstrating that the […]

To the Editor: The article “Carbon Footprint of General, Regional, and Combined Anesthesia for Total Knee Replacement” by McGain et al. provides welcome dialogue in the evidence-sparse domain of carbon equivalent comparisons between anesthetic modalities. Their paper describes prospective […]

To the Editor: We read with great interest the recent article by McGain et al.1 that quantified the carbon footprint associated with the provision of spinal anesthesia and general anesthesia for total knee arthroplasty. This type of encompassing evaluation is valuable as it is […]

In Reply: We thank all authors for the correspondence relating to our life cycle assessment of anesthesia for knee replacements. In response to Kalmar et al. : We used the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change preferred global warming potential of 100 yr, given that it is […]

Background Functional connectivity in cortical networks is thought to be important for consciousness and can be disrupted during the anesthetized state. Recent work in adults has revealed dynamic connectivity patterns during stable general anesthesia, but whether similar connectivity state transitions occur […]
