Summary

The Saudi Emergency Laparotomy Audit (SELA) is a national, multicenter observational clinical audit designed to evaluate outcomes and quality of care for patients undergoing emergency laparotomy in Saudi Arabia. The audit will collect standardized data on patient characteristics, comorbidities, perioperative processes, and postoperative outcomes through a retrospective baseline phase followed by a prospective registry phase. SELA aims to establish national benchmarks, assess applicability of international risk models, support development of a Saudi-specific risk prediction tool, and drive quality improvement through systematic feedback and benchmarking across participating hospitals.
