7 1. Surgical metrics are lacking
8 2. Surgical data is not systema/cally collected Popula/on- based Data Household surveys Verbal autopsies Facility- based Data Infrastructure surveys Health service ac/vity
9 3. No standard surgical taxonomy exists and exis8ng classifica8ons are of limited usefulness
10 Focus on health system strengthening: Credible Indicators Time- bound targets level
11 Global Surgery Indicator Framework Preparedness for surgery Whether services are appropriately planned and sufficiently developed Delivery of surgery Effec/veness of coverage and quality of care being provided Impact of surgery Effects on health, well- being, and produc/vity.
12 Core Indicators for Global Surgery Access to /mely essen/al surgery Financial protec/on Specialist surgical workforce density Postopera/ve mortality Surgical volume 12
13 Access to timely essential surgery Definition: Percentage of the population that can access, within 2 hours, a facility that can do caesarian section, laparotomy, and treat an open fracture (the Bellwether Procedures) Rationale: All people should have timely access to emergency surgical services; Doing the Bellwether Procedures infers performance of most essential surgical procedures; 2 hours is a threshold of death from complications of childbirth Target: Minimum 80% coverage of essential surgical and anaesthesia services, per country, by 2030 The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery
14 The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery
15 Specialist surgical workforce density Definition: Number of specialist surgical, anaesthetic and obstetric physicians who are working per 100,000 population Rationale: The availability and accessibility of human resources for health is a crucial component of surgical and anaesthetic care delivery. Target: 100% of countries with at least 20 surgical, anaesthetic, and obstetric physicians per 100,000 population by 2030 The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery

19 Surgical volume Definition: Procedures done in an operating theatre, per 100,000 population per year Rationale: The number of surgical procedures done per year is an indicator of met need Target: 80% of countries by 2020 and 100% of countries by 2030 tracking surgical volume; 5000 procedures per 100,000 population by 2030 The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery
20 The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery
21 Perioperative Mortality Definition: All-cause death rate before discharge in patients who have had a procedure in an operating theatre, divided by the total number of procedures, presented as a percentage Rationale: Surgical and anaesthesia safety is an integral component of care delivery Perioperative mortality encompasses deaths in the operating theatre and in the hospital after the procedure Procedures chosen as denominator because most feasible Target: 80% of countries by 2020 and 100% of countries by 2030 tracking perioperative mortality; (in 2020 assess global data and set national targets for 2030) The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery

Selection bias can be identified with country level data collection that includes risk stratification and surgical procedure coding. This is important and will require enhanced information management capabilities, but should not preclude the immediate collection of perioperative mortality rate and surgical volume. The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery
26 Protection against impoverishing expenditure Definition: Proportion of households protected against impoverishment from direct out-of-pocket payments for surgical and anaesthesia care Rationale: Billions of people each year at risk of financial ruin because they have accessed surgical services; this is a surgery-specific version of a World Bank universal health coverage target Target: 100% protection against impoverishment from out-ofpocket payments for surgical and anaesthesia care by 2030 The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery
27 Protection against catastrophic expenditure Definition: Proportion of households protected against catastrophic expenditure from direct out-of-pocket payments for surgical and anaesthesia care Rationale: Billions of people each year at risk of financial ruin because they have accessed surgical services; this is a surgery-specific version of a World Bank universal health coverage target Target: 100% protection against catastrophic expenditure from out-of-pocket payments for surgical and anaesthesia care by 2030 The Lancet Commission on Global Surgery
