Data Driven Surgery: Knowledgebase and Network of Users
A resource for data-driven patient care.
DATA REPOSITORIES
The research data collected by the African Perioperative Research Group (APORG) and through the SSSA Data Driven Surgery Network can be accessed on our Data Repositories page. It is available to all active members with as few restrictions as possible to enable future research projects. As more projects become available, they will be added to the page.
DATA DRIVEN SURGERY NETWORK
We are developing and continuously building on a social systems map to describe the people and entities influencing the collection and use of data to inform policy and practice of surgical and perioperative care in South Africa.
A web-based platform administered by Safe Surgery SA (SSSA) that enables patient-centred information exchange between different members of the care team for a patient undergoing a surgical procedure. Central to its function is its interoperability – the ability to integrate with other data sources using similar health data standards.
