"Fobao International Certification" Completes ISO 14067 Product Carbon Footprint Verification for the Department of Anesthesiology at Shuanghe Hospital

"Fabao International Certification" recently announced that the Department of Anesthesiology at "Shuanghe Hospital" has completed Taiwan's first ISO 14067:2018 product carbon footprint verification "classified by anesthesia method" and obtained a verification statement. These verification results confirm that the hospital has established a system for managing the carbon footprint of its surgical anesthesia services that complies with international standards. As an internationally recognized third-party verification body, "Fabao International Certification" conducted this verification in accordance with the ISO 14067 standard, independently assessing the carbon footprints of four anesthesia methods—endotracheal intubation, intravenous anesthesia, mask anesthesia, and spinal anesthesia—in the Anesthesiology Department of "Shuanghe Hospital." The verification process confirmed that the hospital’s data collection, emissions calculation, and management procedures comply with international standards. The verification results show that, regardless of the type of anesthesia, over 80% of carbon emissions are concentrated during the surgical anesthesia administration phase, with the primary sources being energy use and equipment operation. Operating rooms have long been the most resource-intensive units in hospitals, accounting for approximately one-quarter of the hospital’s total carbon emissions. These verification findings provide a scientific basis for precisely identifying carbon reduction targets and optimizing medical processes in the future. The professional verification team at “Fasbo International Certification” noted that healthcare institutions breaking down their carbon footprint assessments to the level of clinical operations demonstrates that sustainability management is deeply embedded in their daily operational processes. Shuanghe Hospital’s completion of this verification highlights concrete progress in the healthcare industry’s transition toward net-zero emissions. "Fasbo International Certification" has long provided product carbon footprint verification services, assisting various industries in establishing credible environmental performance data.
