A recent Lancet publication highlighted that an estimated 7.7% of all deaths occur in the post-operative period. However, we do not have a good understanding of what contributes to post-operative death due to the paucity of data on deaths as death registration is largely inadequate worldwide. This addition to the DHS would promote the ability to tailor surgical care expansion towards safe surgery and post-operative care.
