Surgical care data, measured to save lives.

Track the five core surgical indicators — securely, in real time.

Lancet-aligned framework

Built on the global surgery evidence base.

De-identified by design

No patient identifiers ever leave the facility.

Role-based governance

Each tier sees exactly what it should.

Facility to national

One pipeline, every reporting level.

Evidence framework

The five core indicators

Aligned with the global surgery framework, Sigma tracks the metrics that define a functioning surgical system.

Surgical Volume

Procedures per 100,000 population, tracked by facility and specialty.

Perioperative Mortality

POMR monitored transparently to drive safer surgical care.

Workforce Density

Surgeons, anaesthetists and obstetricians per 100,000 population.

Timely Access

Share of the population within two hours of essential surgery.

Financial Protection

Protection from impoverishing and catastrophic health expenditure.

Built for the whole system

Every level of the surgical ecosystem, one source of truth.

Role-based visibility ensures data reaches the people who need it — under strict privacy and governance standards.

National ministries

High-level aggregation for strategic planning and resource allocation.

Facility administrators

Granular case tracking, outcome monitoring and operational efficiency.

Research partners

Standardised, de-identified data for quality studies and benchmarking.
