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 performance. 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.

Clinical outcomes tell part of the story. Patient-reported outcomes add the missing context.

PROMS capture how patients experience recovery, function, and day-to-day impact after surgery.

You can understand not just whether a procedure was technically successful, but how it translated into real life.

This kind of insight often surfaces patterns that are otherwise unknown. Subtle differences between cohorts, changes over time, or areas where expectations and experience diverge.

For surgeons, PROMS are not about comparison or compliance. They are about understanding the full effect of care from the patient’s perspective.

When used well, they shift performance conversations from assumption to insight, and from retrospective explanation to meaningful reflection and proactive care.

Bariatric surgery is life-changing, but unlike many other procedures, recovery isn’t measured in days or weeks. It unfolds over months, sometimes years, and patients’ experiences can vary widely depending on the procedure performed.

That’s why capturing long-term, patient-centred feedback is essential.

Our Bariatric Surgery module in SurgicalPerformance supports surgeons in tracking outcomes across the full recovery journey, with the ability to send PROMIS, Patient Satisfaction and PGI-I surveys directly to patients.
These PROMS offer clear insight into physical function, wellbeing, satisfaction and overall perceived improvement.

Surgeons can now follow outcomes for a wide range of bariatric procedures including sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass (RYGB), adjustable gastric banding, single-anastomosis gastric bypass, biliopancreatic diversion, duodenal switch, and others.

By combining your operative detail with structured patient feedback, you gain a much clearer picture of how patients are progressing (long after the initial postoperative period) helping support better care and more informed surgical decisions.

Hernia repair is one of the most common operations performed, yet success is often assessed at a single point in time.

A 6-week review can confirm healing, but it rarely captures how patients are functioning, coping, or feeling in the months that follow.

Patient-reported outcomes add the missing context. They surface pain, functional limitation, and satisfaction in ways traditional metrics cannot, even after technically successful surgery.

When we broaden how we define outcomes, we gain clearer insight into performance and create better opportunities to support recovery.

Public scrutiny of surgery and surgeons is uncomfortable but not new. It reflects rising community expectations of surgeons’ accountability in regards to the care they deliver to patients.

Whether a surgical procedure was successful (or not) is one of the most important questions a patient will ask herself.

If procedures are not successful, patients will know first.
Hospitals and colleagues notice next.
Regulators may follow.

When does the surgeon know?

In SurgicalPerformance, an increasing number of gynaecologists use a system that makes it easy to ask patients how they are doing. Makes it easy for surgeons to elevate the care provided for their patients.

¨Hi XX, this is a 2 minute survey about your health after your procedure…”

A trusted relationship between patients and surgeons today is reinforced not by reputation alone, but by the ability to demonstrate measurable outcomes and ask the patient how she is doing.

Knowing your patient's outcomes is no longer a luxury.
It is part of modern surgical professionalism.

Most surgeons can recall the cases that stayed with them. Fewer can see the full recovery story across their practice.

PROMS turn experience into quantifiable evidence. They replace fragments of memory with structured insight into how patients actually recover, weeks and months after surgery.

When outcomes are understood in aggregate, reflection becomes clearer, decisions become more confident, and improvement becomes intentional.

Reflection is often treated as optional, something to do when time allows. In reality, it is one of the strongest drivers of sustained performance improvement and continued professional development.

Without structure, reflection is easily postponed.

With structure, it becomes part of your daily practice.

High performers are not only skilled operators. They are skilled observers of their own work.

Performance improves when reflection is built into systems, not left to chance.

Complications are an inevitable part of surgical practice, but how they’re experienced and processed matters.

Without context, a single adverse event can feel isolating and disproportionately heavy. With trusted outcomes data, it becomes part of a broader, accurate picture.

SurgicalPerformance gives surgeons that perspective. By placing individual cases within meaningful, specialty-relevant benchmarks, it supports reflection grounded in evidence, not emotion or memory.

This isn’t about judgement.
It’s about clarity.

And clarity makes it easier to reset, learn, and move forward with confidence.

One of the most consistent patterns in performance work is how quickly behaviour shifts when meaningful insight becomes available.

When surgeons have access to clear, relevant outcome data, reflection becomes more specific and conversations become more productive.

Change is self-directed rather than imposed.

There is no need for instruction or enforcement. The data creates its own momentum.

This is not about scrutiny. It is about giving surgeons the information they need to understand their own practice and make informed decisions about improvement.

Mesh removal surgery is one of the most complex and high-stakes pathways in women’s health.

Technical success alone doesn’t tell the full story. Long-term recovery, symptom relief, and quality of life matter just as much.

We’ve published a new article on why SurgicalPerformance now supports dedicated outcome tracking for mesh removal surgery, and how structured case data and PROMS help surgeons gain clarity in a challenging clinical landscape.

Experience builds confidence, efficiency, and clinical intuition. But experience alone does not guarantee continued performance growth.

In many surgical environments, structured feedback is limited or delayed. Over time, assumptions begin to replace insight, even for highly experienced clinicians.

Without clear insight into outcomes, it becomes difficult to know what is working well and what could be refined.

Performance improvement slows, not because capability or desire is lacking, but because feedback is.

Growth accelerates when experience is paired with meaningful, trusted insight.

The goal is not correction. It is clarity.

For many surgeons, the greatest surprises don’t happen in theatre… they happen much later.

A procedure may go exactly as planned.

And a week after discharge from hospital, your patient is not doing as well as s/he should. Ongoing pain, limited function, or dissatisfaction that no one saw coming.

These moments aren’t a failure of care. They’re a failure of visibility.
Patient-reported outcome measures extend insight beyond discharge and routine appointments. They show how recovery is actually experienced over time (where pain lingers, function returns more slowly, or expectations weren’t fully met).

By knowing early, PROMS reduce unwanted surprises because you can intervene. PROMS allow concerns to be identified, contextualised, and addressed before they surface as disengagement, dissatisfaction, or negative reviews.

For surgeons, this isn’t about judgement or defensiveness. It’s about clarity.

When recovery is understood in full, reflection becomes easier, follow-up becomes more purposeful, and improvement becomes quieter, steadier, and more intentional.
