Did you know that only 0.4% of multilateral health funding goes to surgical care, while 50% goes to communicable diseases?
What does this gap mean for surgical equity?

Big thank you to all co-authors for the support and dedication to this project. And a really special thank you to our senior authors, Dr. Saluja and Dr. Joaquim, for the exceptional guidance and mentorship.
And that’s a wrap for #AHPBA26!
Already back in Brazil, feeling so motivated to keep working toward my goals and dreams. Incredibly grateful for those days in Miami, and for all the connections and learning.
See you all next year!!!

Systematic review of the Lancet Commission on Global Surgery indicators with quality assessment of modelled estimates
➡️https://t.co/1RD0jbjbUt
📊 Systematic review of 44 studies/policies assessing Lancet Commission surgical indicators across 217 countries
⚠️ Reporting remains limited:
• Access to surgery: 39% met target
• Workforce density: 50.3% met target
• Surgical volume: 31.5% met target
• Financial protection: 0 countries met targets
🌐 Major disparities: high-income countries consistently outperform LMICs
📉 Many modelled estimates lack transparency and validation
🏠Global surgical system monitoring is fragmented and incomplete. Without standardized, routine data collection, progress toward 2030 goals cannot be reliably tracked.
