Sponsored by University of Ibadan · Observational
The Nigerian Surgical Outcome Study is a national 30-day observational cohort study of complications after surgery. Various institutions across Nigeria will be involved. The study aims at providing detailed data describing post-operative complications, requirement for intensive care and mortality. All patients undergoing either elective surgery during a 7-day study period with a planned overnight stay will be recruited.
It is widely known that complications after surgery are responsible for a good number of morbidity and mortality following surgery. This national cohort study will help contribute to, and allow a better computation of data on post-operative complications and mortality following elective surgery in Nigeria.
This study therefore has important public health implications for Nigeria. This study will also provide a baseline for other similar studies in future being the first of such in Nigeria.
Objectives are:
All recruited patients would have had the routine preoperative surgical and anaesthetic review. Since the study is purely observational, all basic intraoperative procedures as it relates to surgery and anaesthesia will not be altered. Following informed written consent by the patient, the following information will be obtained.
1,233 studies on the registry are indexed under Postoperative Complications; 292 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 3,000 is above the median of 254 across 519 observational studies indexed under Postoperative Complications.

Plan to share: No — Data will be pseudo-anonymised by generation of a unique numeric code and transcribed by local investigators onto an internet based electronic CRF. Each patient will only be identified on the electronic CRF by their numeric code; thus the co- ordinating study team cannot trace data back to an individual patient without contact with the local team.
