SurgicalPerformance

SurgicalPerformance SurgicalPerformance Pty Ltd is an independent, registered Australian company (ABN 73 139 825 166), based in Brisbane, Australia.

SurgicalPerformance is a secure web-based platform built for surgeons by surgeons to collect insights about their surgical procedures, their outcomes and any confounders. It was founded in 2009 by surgeons to support clinicians in their endeavours to improve patient outcomes. SurgicalPerformance is a simple, accurate and confidential tool that allows individual surgeons to record their surgical pe

rformance. The data collected is essential to providing bench-marked feedback in order to self-assess and improve. The data will also stand up to the highest levels of scrutiny should your practice come under question. Its main task is to support doctors by providing them with information on their treatment outcomes. Doctors then can take corrective action if they deem it necessary. Only registered medical practitioners can use the software. Access is secured by the use of a username and password. All data transfer is encrypted, safe from interference and stored securely.

Not all PROMS answer the same question.

Hospitals collect PROMS to identify differences between hospitals. Doctors collect PROMS to see how their own patients are going.

Hospital-level data helps health services to check how they are going. That matters.

But it doesn't tell YOU, an individual surgeon, how YOUR patients are recovering, week to week, case to case.

SurgicalPerformance PROMS is built for that question: an automated system that lets you hear directly from your own patients after discharge, without extra admin or unanswered phone calls.

Different data. Different purpose. Both needed.

The AGES and SurgicalPerformance M&M meeting is tomorrow night.
Wednesday 2 September, 7:00 PM AEST.

If you are yet to register, there is still time. This is a session for gynaecological surgeons who want to engage seriously with outcomes, complications, and the kind of reflection that makes practice better.

New research co-authored by our founder Professor Andreas Obermair looks at something surgical teams rarely have structured data on: how patients are actually doing years after non-surgical endometrial cancer management.

The feMMe trial followed patients with early-stage endometrial cancer or endometrial hyperplasia with atypia who were managed conservatively with a levonorgestrel IUD, avoiding surgery and preserving fertility. The oncologic outcomes were already established. This long-term follow-up examined quality of life, self-efficacy, and patient-reported experience at a median of 63 months after trial entry.

The findings are broadly reassuring. Overall quality of life was favourable and comparable across treatment strategies. 74.4% of participants reported a positive treatment experience and 85.4% would recommend conservative management to others.

One finding stands out: patients who achieved pathological complete response reported significantly better physical activity self-efficacy. A marker worth paying attention to in survivorship care.

The research also points to a consistent gap: perceived social support for health behaviours was limited across the cohort. A signal that structured survivorship support has a role to play alongside oncologic follow-up.

5 days until the AGES and SurgicalPerformance M&M webinar.
Wednesday 2 September, 7:00 PM AEST.

SurgicalPerformance founder Professor Andreas Obermair will be speaking at this session alongside colleagues from AGES.

If you want to hear directly from the clinician who built the platform, and the thinking behind why outcomes data matters in practice, this is the session to be at.

Register now if you have not already.

Intraoperative adverse events in gynaecological surgery are more common than reported. Not because surgeons are hiding them, but because until recently there was no standardised way to classify them.
CiASE, the Classification of Intraoperative Adverse Surgical Events, changes that. Developed by colleagues at the Queensland Centre for Gynaecological Cancer Research, CiASE provides a validated grading system from Grade 0 (no adverse event) through to Grade 4 (intraoperative or perioperative death), with 95.2% accuracy and near-perfect inter-rater reliability across 25 surgeons.

It distinguishes between adverse events that have minimal impact on recovery and those that require readmission, reoperation, or result in ongoing disability. It gives surgeons a shared, precise language for what happens in the operating room.

SurgicalPerformance supports CiASE classification directly within the platform, so your intraoperative adverse events are captured, graded, and tracked alongside your broader outcomes data.

Because you cannot improve what you cannot clearly define.

Hint: there is no right answer.

Every surgeon handles these moments differently.

But the surgeons who recover their confidence fastest tend to have one thing in common: a clear, honest picture of their overall performance to return to.

A uterine perforation is a difficult moment for any surgeon.

For Dr Michal Amir, Gynaecologist and Endometriosis Specialist based in Melbourne, what followed is what made the difference.

That is not a small thing. In the aftermath of a complication, the ability to see your full picture, not just the case in front of you, can be the difference between spiralling and regaining your footing.

Data does not just track performance. For many surgeons, it restores confidence when it matters most.

For our New Zealand SurgicalPerformance users, entering a case just got a little smoother.

When adding a Quick Case with your country set to New Zealand, the platform now automatically captures the patient's NHI number and sets it as their patient identifier. No manual entry. No extra steps.

New Zealand surgeons have been part of the SurgicalPerformance community for years, using the platform to track outcomes, hear from patients through PROMS, and build a clearer picture of their practice over time.

This update is part of how we keep building. Specialty by specialty, feature by feature, the platform continues to reflect how surgeons in practice actually work.

If you are a New Zealand surgeon who has not yet started, a free 10-case trial gives you full access to INSIGHTS and PROMS. No credit card required.

One of the quieter benefits of tracking your outcomes is what it does to your relationship with complications.

When something goes wrong in surgery, the instinct is to replay it. To question your judgement, your technique, your decision-making. For many surgeons, that process happens without any reference point.

Having data changes that. Not by minimising what happened, but by putting it in context. When you can see your full complication rate alongside thousands of anonymised peer outcomes for the same procedure, a single difficult case becomes part of a larger picture rather than the only picture.

That context does not take away the weight of a complication. But it can shorten the time it takes to regain perspective, and get back to doing the work your patients need you to do.

The next AGES and SurgicalPerformance M&M webinar is confirmed.
Tuesday 2 September, 7:00 PM AEST.

M&M meetings are one of the most valuable forums in surgical practice. A space to review outcomes honestly, learn from what went wrong and share what worked. This session brings that discussion to a broader audience of gynaecological surgeons across Australia.
