Perioperative Mortality Rate (pomr) in a Low-resource Non-governmental Organization (ngo) Hospital Setting in India.

Seventy percent of the global population do not have access to safe and affordable surgical and anaesthesia care, and 90% of them are found in the low-and-middle income countries. The WHO considers perioperative mortality rate (POMR) as a gross indicator for safe surgical practice. We aimed to descriptively assess the POMR of our low resource non-governmental organization (NGO) hospital in India.
