INTRODUCTION
Significant inequities exist in surgical care accessibility across marginalized African communities. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and humanitarian groups are vital in supporting Africa's surgical infrastructure. This narrative review explores the current status of surgical care in Africa, highlighting NGO initiatives, past challenges, and future opportunities.
METHODS
A narrative review was conducted using PubMed/Medline, ScienceDirect, and other relevant organizational websites.
RESULTS
Over 90% of patients in Africa lack access to proper surgical care due to funding shortages, inadequate resources, and a lack of skilled personnel. NGOs have addressed these gaps through successful initiatives, including fundraising and training, although past failures emphasize the need for clearer objectives and sustainable strategies.
DISCUSSION
Future efforts should prioritize addressing cultural sensitivities, setting realistic goals, and leveraging telemedicine. NGOs and humanitarian organizations will remain critical to improving surgical care for underserved populations in Africa.
引言
在非洲边缘化社区，外科护理的可及性存在显著不平等。非政府组织（NGO）和人道主义团体在支持非洲外科基础设施方面至关重要。本叙述性综述探讨了非洲外科护理的现状，强调了非政府组织的举措、过去的挑战和未来的机遇。
方法
使用PubMed/Medline、ScienceDirect和其他相关组织网站进行叙述性综述。
结果
由于资金短缺、资源不足和缺乏技术人员，非洲超过90%的患者无法获得适当的外科护理。非政府组织通过成功的举措填补了这些差距，包括筹款和培训，尽管过去的失败强调了需要更明确的目标和可持续战略。
讨论
未来的努力应优先解决文化敏感性问题、设定现实目标并利用远程医疗。非政府组织和人道主义组织对于改善非洲服务不足人群的外科护理仍将至关重要。
