estimated avoided emissions

In simple terms

The model asks: if hospitals safely reuse more eligible devices, how many new devices might they avoid buying—and what could that save in money, materials and emissions?

Important limitation

This is an estimate, not a guarantee. Real results depend on the device, hospital, supplier and number of safe reuses achieved.
