GO SOAR1: Post-Operative Morbidity and Mortality Following Gynaecological Oncology Surgery

The Global Gynaecological Oncology Surgical Outcomes Collaborative (GO SOAR) will develop a network of gynaecological oncology surgeons, surgical departments and other interested parties that will have the long-term ability to collaborate on outcome studies. The aims of the Collaborative are to: 1. Set the research agenda through research prioritisation in gynaecological oncology surgical outcomes. 2. Gather high quality data via a centralised database accessible to all sites that perform gynaecological oncology surgery. 3. Build sustainable international research by producing protocols/guidelines. 4. Train the researchers and leaders of tomorrow by providing open access to all GO SOAR training materials. The Collaborative will lead to several studies. The first GO SOAR collaborative study (GO SOAR1) will evaluate international variation of post-operative morbidity and mortality following gynaecological oncology surgery between country groups defined by the human development index (HDI).
