Background
Surgery is the main modality of cure for solid cancers and was prioritised to continue during COVID-19 outbreaks. This study aimed to identify immediate areas for system strengthening by comparing the delivery of elective cancer surgery d...

SARS-CoV-2 infection and venous thromboembolism after surgery: an international prospective cohort study. (2021)
Journal Article
Collaborative, C., Collaborative, G., & Parry-Smith, W. (2022). SARS-CoV-2 infection and venous thromboembolism after surgery: an international prospective cohort study. Anaesthesia, 77(1), 28-39. https://doi.org/10.1111/anae.15563

SARS-CoV-2 has been associated with an increased rate of venous thromboembolism in critically ill patients. Since surgical patients are already at higher risk of venous thromboembolism than general populations, this study aimed to determine if patien...

SARS-CoV-2 vaccination modelling for safe surgery to save lives: data from an international prospective cohort study (2021)
Journal Article
Collaborative, C., Collaborative, G., & Parry-Smith, W. (2021). SARS-CoV-2 vaccination modelling for safe surgery to save lives: data from an international prospective cohort study. British Journal of Surgery, 108(9), 1056-1063. https://doi.org/10.1093/bjs/znab101

Background
Preoperative SARS-CoV-2 vaccination could support safer elective surgery. Vaccine numbers are limited so this study aimed to inform their prioritization by modelling.

Methods
The primary outcome was the number needed to vaccinate (NNV... Read More about SARS-CoV-2 vaccination modelling for safe surgery to save lives: data from an international prospective cohort study.
