About
Dr. Sangeeta Ramani is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of gynecologic surgery and environmental sustainability. Her work focuses on quantifying the carbon footprint of surgical procedures, with a particular emphasis on hysterectomies—one of the most common major surgeries performed on women. In her landmark 2023 study, "Carbon Dioxide Emissions and Environmental Impact of Different Surgical Modalities of Hysterectomies," Dr. Ramani compared greenhouse gas emissions generated from nonreusable waste across various hysterectomy approaches for both benign and malignant indications. This work, which has already garnered 11 citations, represents a critical step in understanding the environmental toll of surgical care. By linking procedural waste to overall emissions, she provides actionable data for hospitals and policymakers aiming to reduce healthcare's carbon footprint. Dr. Ramani’s contributions are especially timely as the medical field grapples with climate change, and her research empowers surgeons to make more eco-conscious choices without compromising patient outcomes. Her work is a vital resource for students and clinicians interested in sustainable healthcare practices.
