National data will be increasingly used to monitor performance in #neurosurgery. Read the latest NNAP research paper on risk-adjustment & performance monitoring, published in @ActaNeuro

Have been following the conversation around the Paris Olympics #OpeningCeremony. The content depicting the apparent parody of the Last Supper is inappropriate, grossly offensive and sacrilegious, and entirely unacceptable.
At a moment in time that presented an opportunity for unifying people, and bringing joy and healing to a world increasingly torn apart by conflict, war, religious persecution, and division on many levels, more unnecessary offence, hurt and distraction has been caused.
I will be sharing my thoughts in greater depth in the coming days, but to everyone who is justifiably offended, saddened and concerned that such a beautiful moment in history, and one that is core to the Christian Faith, was so misrepresented, I assure you that you are not alone.

"Globally, 27% of children died before they were 15 years old in 1950.
But that figure became 4.3% in 2020, which is a 6-fold decline in seventy years."

Two bad habits that held me back the most during my PhD...(and how I broke them):
Is mortality a statistically valid performance indicator in neurosurgery?
No - for individual surgeons (due to low volumes & low mortality).
Yes - for neurosurgical units, and in certain subspecialties.

And emergency neurosurgery.
Pooling procedures increases volume (& statistical power) but produces heterogeneous groups. This introduces several challenges for national audit.
