Environmentally Sustainable Kidney Care - UBC and BCR Province Wide Rounds 04.26.2024

Dr. Caroline Stigant presents her talk, “Environmentally Sustainable Kidney Care - BC Leads in Innovation and Practice,” as part of BC Renal and UBC’s province-wide rounds. 0:09:00 – Sustainability Regulations and Goals Dr. Stigant begins by discussing the Paris Accord and other goals to keep global warming limited, which are not being met. She emphasizes the need to focus on more than carbon emissions, and points to environmental rights and agreements in place in Canada. 0:13:00 – Sustainable Kidney Care working group She discusses ways that BC Renal is working to implement the PHSA’s Planetary Health Strategic Plan. This includes a working group, which is focusing on promoting existing policies, education, implementing strategies into practice, promoting champions, etc. She shares data collected from a member of the working group, which compares the environmental impacts of kidney transplantation compared to in-centre hemodialysis. Dr. Stigant also points to ways in which working group members are encouraging sustainable kidney care through nursing roles, and a new, interactive hyperlinked resource called the Sustainable Kidney Care Playbook. 0:23:00 – Sustainability communication and strategies Dr. Stigant notes that saving the planet isn’t just a science problem, but a communication problem, and emphasizes the need for accountability and increasing capacity to achieve sustainability goals. She underscores the importance of health promotion, early identification, appropriate treatments and increasing supports for conservative management, and net-zero waste kidney replacement therapies. 0:30:00 – Sustainability examples Dr. Stigant provides an example of a local initiative to reduce waste associate with intravenous iron, where they were able to reduce 36 kilograms of waste associated with just 490 doses. Dr. Stigant encourages others working on similar projects to share their findings with the working group, which could be used by more people in the kidney community. She also highlights two projects to reduce waste associated with in-centre hemodialysis. 0:35:00 – Pro-innovation procurement She then highlights work by GREEN-K that could be applied within the BC Renal network, involving a concept called pro-innovation procurement. With this approach, groups of buyers unite for intended purchases in the future, providing industry with specific requirements (e.g., environmental standards) in which they must invest and innovate to meet that requirement. Dr. Stigant says her working group will be meeting with GREEN-K to discuss this strategy. 0:39:00 –Partnership She then talks about a partnership between BC Renal/PHSA, HARPs and the Ministry of Health, and which strategies might be explored together (e.g., roll out of the Sustainable Kidney Care Playbook, procurement, nursing practices, a local carbon calculator, advocating for low-carbon transportation, etc.). 0:43:00 – Future directions Dr. Stigant discusses the working group’s future directions before taking questions from the audience.
