We proudly share the first @CovidSurg @GlobalSurg paper published in @Anaes_Journal based on the world’s biggest data about surgery following SARS-CoV-2 infection. Hopefully, it will guide practice.

📃It is open access and you can read it here 👇 doi.org/10.1111/anae.1…
@CovidSurg @GlobalSurg Week was an international, prospective cohort study with more than 140,000 surgical patients from 116 countries enrolled 🌏🌎🌍

We compared 30-day postoperative mortality in previously infected patients with SARS-CoV-2 vs patients who never were infected
Previously infected patients having surgery at 0-2, 3-4, 5-6 weeks after the infection have higher mortality rates than patients who never got infected with SARS-CoV-2 ImageImage
📢📢 Our findings suggest that previously infected patients with SARS-CoV-2 have lower 30-day postoperative mortality if surgery is delayed for 7 weeks.

📢📢 It also supports that further delay should be considered in patients that have undergoing symptoms at 7 weeks.

One year ago today @CovidSurg started.

It's been a tough year for everyone, both professionally and personally. @CovidSurg's priority has been to support surgeons & anaesthetists by providing these best possible evidence to inform surgical care during the pandemic. Image
As the pandemic has progressed, we constantly re-prioritised

Our early work included
▶️Natural history of perioperative SARS-CoV-2: thelancet.com/journals/lance…
▶️Burden of pandemic on surgical services: bjssjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…
▶️Early consensus guidance: academic.oup.com/bjs/article/10… Image
We then pivoted to exploring how to mitigate SARS-CoV-2 risks for surgical patients

▶️COVID-free surgical pathways: ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12…
▶️Preoperative swab screening: academic.oup.com/bjs/article/10…
▶️Timing of surgery in patients with previous SARS-Cov-2: …-publications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11… Image
