Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most common infections associated with health care, but its importance as a global priority not fully understood. We quantified burden SSI after gastrointestinal surgery in countries all parts world.
Background80% of individuals with cancer will require a surgical procedure, yet little comparative data exist on early outcomes in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). We compared postoperative breast, colorectal, gastric surgery hospitals worldwide, focusing the effect disease stage complications mortality.MethodsThis was multicentre, international prospective cohort study consecutive adult patients undergoing for primary or requiring skin incision done under general neuraxial...
BackgroundCongenital anomalies are the fifth leading cause of mortality in children younger than 5 years globally. Many gastrointestinal congenital fatal without timely access to neonatal surgical care, but few studies have been done on these conditions low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). We compared outcomes seven most common low-income, middle-income, high-income globally, identified factors associated with mortality.MethodsWe did a multicentre, international prospective cohort...
Critical illness represents a major global health-care burden and critical care is an essential component of hospital care. There are few data describing the prevalence, treatment, outcomes critically ill patients in African hospitals. This was international, prospective, point prevalence study acute hospitals across Africa. Investigators examined all inpatients aged 18 years or older, regardless location, to assess coprimary 7-day mortality. Patients were classified as if at least one vital...
BackgroundSurgical site infection (SSI) is the most common postoperative complication worldwide. WHO guidelines to prevent SSI recommend alcoholic chlorhexidine skin preparation and fascial closure using triclosan-coated sutures, but called for assessment of both interventions in low-resource settings. This study aimed test low-income middle-income countries.MethodsFALCON was a 2 × factorial, randomised controlled trial stratified by whether surgery clean-contaminated, or contaminated dirty,...
In vitro studies have shown the efficacy of Ivermectin (IV) to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 viral replication, but questions remained as in-vivo applications. We set out explore and safety in persons infected with COVID19.We conducted a translational proof concept randomized, double blind placebo controlled, dose response parallel group study IV RT-polymerase chain reaction proven COVID 19 positive patients. Sixty-two patients were randomized three treatment groups. (A) 6 mg regime, (B) 12 regime...
The CovidSurg-Cancer Consortium aimed to explore the impact of COVID-19 in surgical patients and services for solid cancers at start pandemic. CovidSurg-Gynecologic Oncology Cancer subgroup was particularly concerned about magnitude adverse outcomes caused by disrupted gynecologic cancer care during pandemic, which are currently unclear.

The Initiative for Children's (GICS) was founded 2016 identify solutions problems children's surgery utilizing expertise practitioners from around world. This report details this unique process underlying principles.Three global meetings convened providers services Through working group meetings, participants reviewed...
The World Health Organization (WHO) Surgical Safety Checklist has fostered safe practice for 10 years, yet its place in emergency surgery not been assessed on a global scale. aim of this study was to evaluate reported checklist use settings and examine the relationship with perioperative mortality patients who had laparotomy.In two multinational cohort studies, adults undergoing laparotomy were compared those having elective gastrointestinal surgery. Relationships between determined using...
Abstract Background Appendicitis is the most common abdominal surgical emergency worldwide. Differences between high- and low-income settings in availability of laparoscopic appendectomy, alternative management choices, outcomes are poorly described. The aim was to identify variation appendicitis within low-, middle-, high-Human Development Index (HDI) countries Methods This a multicenter, international prospective cohort study. Consecutive sampling patients undergoing appendectomy over 6...
Community transmission of COVID-19 is already being reported in Africa.1 Most countries on the continent will have +10,000 confirmed cases within month.2 The population, while generally younger than Europe and North America, has much higher rates poverty, malnutrition, HIV, TB, which could shift demographics lethality. For surgeons, obstetricians, anesthesiologists, major challenge be maintaining provision emergency essential surgery obstetric care preserving precious resources, minimizing...
