The @NIHR_GSU @FalconRct closed in September, and we are moving fast to submit the paper (no 2 year gap here).

It recruited 5480 patients and will blow previous surgical site infections trials out of the water:

[FALCON RCT @FalconRct]

@PenguinRct seeks to assess whether chlorhex mouthwash and different concentrations of oxygen influence post-op outcomes in patients undergoing high risk abdo surgery. Exciting times for global surgery! 🐧

[PENGUIN RCT @PenguinRct]

@PenguinRct has taken its maiden dive! 🐧

Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town 🇿🇦 today received the green light to start recruitment!

Many thanks & congratulations to the teams at GSH & at the South Africa Hub in Joburg for kicking off the trial!
