Workshop
Global Surgery Research- International Survey

Event Description

Dear colleagues,

As part of the first international study on the familiarity of national Medical Doctors of Surgery/Anaesthesiology with the concept of Global Surgery, you are kindly invited to contribute to the following questionnaire. The questionnaire is addressed to board-certified Medical Doctors of all Surgical Speciaties/Anaesthesiology, actively employed in your country. DEADLINE: 02/09/2024 - 31/12/2024.

According to The Lancet Global Surgery Commission the official definitions for Global Surgery are as follows.

"Global Surgery. An area of study, research, practice, and advocacy that seeks to improve health outcomes and achieve health equity for all people who need surgical and anaesthesia care, with a special emphasis on underserved populations and populations in crisis. It uses collaborative, cross-sectoral, and transnational approaches and is a synthesis of population-based strategies with individual surgical and anaesthesia care." (Meara JG, et al. Global Surgery 2030: evidence and solutions for achieving health, welfare, and economic development. Lancet. 2015 Aug 8;386(9993):569-624.)

''Global surgery'' is the term adopted to describe a rapidly developing multidisciplinary field aiming to provide improved and equitable surgical care across international health systems. Sitting at the interface between numerous clinical and non-clinical specialisms, it encompasses multiple aspects that surround the treatment of surgical disease and its equitable provision across health systems globally. From defining the role of, and need for, optimal surgical care through to identifying barriers and implementing improvement, global surgery has an expansive remit." (Bath M, et al. What is 'global surgery'? Defining the multidisciplinary interface between surgery, anaesthesia and public health. BMJ Glob Health. 2019 Oct 30;4(5):e001808.)

Please find each questionnaire below. You are kindly invited to complete the questionnaire corresponding to the country of your professional activity.
