Paediatric Surgery across Sub-Saharan Africa: A Multi-Centre Prospective Cohort Study
Dr Theophilus Teddy Kojo Anyomih, Dr Naomi Wright,PaedSurg Africa Research Collaboration
Extreme Affordability Conference, July 2018
5 billion peopleLack access to surgical care
29% of the worlds unmet need for surgery
50% of the population are children
Up to 1/3 of childhood deaths result from a surgical condition
Congenital anomalies are the 5th leading cause of death in <5-year olds
2015 – the year for global surgery
80% coverage of surgical care per country by 2030
38 retrospective reviews 13 prospective
across 54 countriesin 20-years
Children’s surgery must be recognised in plans to scale up surgical care in SSA!
Research Collaboration
Aim:To form a collaboration of surgeons and allied health professionals involved in children’s surgery across SSAto collectively undertake the largest prospective cohort study of paediatric surgery in this region of the world.
All collaborators as co-authors
Data CollectionOn 5 conditions
Data Collection
Over a 1-month period, during Oct 2016 – April 2017.
Three collaborators per institution per month of data collection.
Using the online database:
Primary outcome: in-hospital mortality.
Secondary outcomes: surgical site infectionwound dehiscenceneed for re-intervention condition specific complications
Data was collected on: patient demographics, time to presentation, clinical status, peri-intervention care, intervention and outcome.
Hospital resources for neonatal & paediatric surgery.
Data Collection
Data Analysis
Chi-squared analysis & Fisher’s exact tests were used to compare outcomes in SSA with published benchmark data from high-income countries.
Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors affecting outcome.
Data validated in 10% of centres.
Ethical approval from all centres.
Results
220 collaborators76 hospitals23 countries
Results
1407 cases:
- 111 gastroschisis- 188 anorectal malformation- 250 appendicitis- 225 intussusception- 633 inguinal hernia
All Conditions
Overall all-cause in-hospital mortality: 9.1%
30d mortality 10.0% compared to 0.7% in HICs p<0.0001
139 children died in this study: only 9 would die in HICs
Mortality was significantly associated with:Gastroschisis, higher ASA score, receiving a blood transfusion and anaesthetic nurse compared to doctor.

Hospital Resources & Facilities
0.5 paediatric surgeons/ 1 million population
Resource Percentage of collaborators with a reliable access to the resource
PICU 23%
NICU 27%
Parenteral nutrition 18%
Central line for children/neonates 28%/ 21%
Anaesthetic machine for children/ neonates 67%/ 48%
Air enema/ hydro-enema reduction for intussusception
16%/ 27%
Conclusion
1) Largest prospective cohort study of paediatric surgery in SSA to aid advocacy and policy planning.
2) All conditions had a significantly higher mortality in SSA than HICs.
3) Gastroschisis had the greatest disparity in outcome.
3) Formation of a research collaboration:- enhanced research capacity amongst collaborators- created a platform for ongoing research & interventional studies
Dissemination
• 30 international/ national/ regional presentations to date
• 10 further planned presentations
Wellcome Trust Clinical PhD in Global Health
Clinical Interventional Study
7 hospitals: Ghana, Zambia, Malawi, Tanzania
Aim: Reduce mortality in neonates born with gastroschisis
