Hepato-pancreatic and biliary surgery is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. A large number of these complications can be avoided and promote better outcomes. Peri-operative complications can have significant impact on the overall cost of the procedure. Number of steps can be adopted in the post-procedure phase with accurate documentation, stratification, classification and categorisation of complications. This will help to monitor departmental surgical outcomes and necessary steps that can be adopted to improve patient safety. This study will aim to propose a structure to record post-operative surgical complications following hepato-pancreatic and biliary (HPB) surgery. This record keeping and reflection will help to improve patient care and outcome.
