Published emission factors can be applied to provide average emissions for attributable processes, enabling detailed analysis with high specificity and allowing comparison between items from the same sector.
“Published emission factors can be applied, which provide average emissions for given attributable processes (for example electricity consumption, transportation, and production of a given material).This enables detailed analysis with high specificity, allowing comparison between items from the same sector.(20)”
From The Carbon Footprint of Surgical Operations (2020) · cites this paper as [20]
Section 2.2 describes process-based carbon accounting as an itemised estimate of emissions at each step of a product’s life cycle, supporting the detailed-analysis part of the claim. Section 4.1 also discusses calculated emission factors. The passages do not establish that applying published average factors provides high specificity or enables comparisons between items within the same sector; those parts are unsupported by our copy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
