Individuals undergo surgery an average of nine times in their lifetime. Surgery is increasingly complex, and our aging population presenting for surgery is increasingly co-morbid.
Historically surgical and anaesthesia research has occurred in silos, and may not be easily translatable or scalable, with patient-focussed outcomes (including psychological and social) only coming to the forefront in more recent years. The medical evidence base is expanding rapidly but its translation into patient care is incomplete and understudied. There is an urgent need for coordinated, collaborative, clinician-driven and relevant research that seeks to optimise holistic long-term health outcomes for all the community using the surgical encounter as an opportunity for improved health outcomes.
Our collaborative, clinician-driven program seeks to improve the operative experience through research into:
-
Improving clinical care by determining optimal systems and team processes that drive safety and efficiency
-
Reducing unnecessary procedures
-
Improving economic outcomes and reducing waste
