NCT ID NCT07621198

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is building a risk prediction model for major complications and death within 30 days after major surgery, specifically for low- and middle-income countries. Researchers are collecting data on patient health, hospital resources, and safety practices from multiple international centers. The goal is to create a tool that helps doctors identify high-risk patients and improve surgical safety in resource-limited settings.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this could lead to a simple tool that helps doctors in low-resource settings identify high-risk patients before surgery, potentially reducing preventable deaths.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The prediction model may not be accurate enough to change outcomes, and results may not apply to all settings.
