CHALLENGE

Keeping track of surgical outcomes without the admin burden

With more than two decades of surgical experience, Dr. Petra Ladwig understood the importance of maintaining accurate records and meeting professional obligations. Over the years, she had witnessed the growing expectations around audit compliance and CPD reporting and the increasing demand for surgeons to back their expertise with structured data.

But while these requirements were essential, they came with a cost. Traditional systems for managing surgical records were often time-consuming, paper-based, or disconnected from day-to-day clinical workflows. For an experienced specialist juggling full surgical lists, teaching responsibilities, and ongoing patient care, the idea of adding more administrative tasks was simply unsustainable.

I started using it for CPD, but now it’s part of my daily routine. I come back from theatre and enter my cases — it takes less than a minute.

Initially, Dr. Ladwig was looking for a straightforward solution to log cases for CPD. But what she truly needed was a platform that could integrate into her routine without slowing her down. She wanted to ensure her data was captured consistently, that audits could be completed efficiently and that professional reporting didn’t take hours of her time outside of clinical work.

Beyond meeting external obligations, Dr. Ladwig also recognised the personal value of having her own comprehensive surgical record. Knowing she could look back over years of practice, reflect on trends, and access past cases with ease gave her peace of mind and greater clinical confidence. The goal was not just to tick a compliance box, but to build a smarter, more efficient practice that supported her in both surgical care and professional growth.

In her search for a solution, the challenge was clear—she needed a reliable way to manage her data that worked with her, not against her.

SOLUTION

Quick data entry, long-term surgical oversight

Dr. Ladwig has logged over 2,000 cases in SurgicalPerformance. Her approach is simple: enter data immediately post-surgery, update records if complications arise, and use the dashboard to manage follow-up and historical outcomes.

Tracks and audits cases for procedures like prolapse and mesh surgery
Integrates colposcopy data with registry requirements
Maintains long-term surgical histories (some patients tracked for over a decade)

Generates data for major audits and peer discussions with ease

The colposcopy linkage is a lifesaver. It saves time, keeps me compliant, and makes monthly submissions painless.
