CONCLUSIONS: Strengthening data quality and record-keeping is essential for surgical team communication, continuity of care, and patient safety, especially in low resource settings where paper-based records are the primary means of data collection. High-quality primary health information provides facilities with actionable data for improving surgical and obstetric care quality at the facility level. PMID: 32476620 [PubMed - in process]
