• Conditions: Surgery; Covid19; Post-Op Complication

• Registration Number: NCT04509986
• Lead Sponsor: University of Birmingham

Brief Summary

Observational study to determine the optimal timing for surgery following SARS-CoV-2 infection and assess key global surgery indicators.

Detailed Description

* Prospective, observational international cohort study.

* Any hospital worldwide can participate (including hospitals that have not admitted SARS-CoV-2 infected patients).

* All patients undergoing a surgical procedure in an operating theatre will be included. All consecutive eligible patients should be included.

* 7-day data collection period, with follow-up at 30 days after surgery for each patient. However, no changes should be made to normal patient care/ follow-up pathways

* Primary outcome is 30-day mortality.

* All collaborators will be included as PubMed-citable co-authors on resulting publications.
