“WHO/BCT has identified education and training as a particular priority, especially for non-specialist practitioners who practise surgery and anaesthesia. It has therefore developed Surgical Care at the District Hospital as a practical resource for individual practitioners and for use in undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, in-service training and continuing medical education programmes. The manual is a successor of three earlier publicationsthat are widely used throughout the world and that remain important reference
texts: General Surgery at the District Hospital (WHO, 1988) Surgery at the District Hospital: Obstetrics Gynaecology,Orthopaedics and
Traumatology (WHO, 1991) Anaesthesia at the District Hospital (WHO, 1988; second edition 2000).”
