For those receiving care in hospitals, more sex diversity among the medical staff in surgery rooms was found to be associated with better post-surgery outcomes for patients, researchers have found. The study authors said sex diversity is not only rooted in social justice and representation, but that it is also a"catalyst for improved performance" — including in the operating room, and that it"enriches the output of teams.

In a study published in the British Journal of Surgery, researchers in a population-based study of medical records in Ontario, Canada in similar groupings of individuals found that adults who underwent major inpatient procedures between 2009 and 2019 in operating rooms with more diversity among males and females were found to have lower morbidity outcomes. Fourteen million residents receive health care services in the Canadian province where the country's capital city Ottawa is found.

A 2016 study in the National Library of Medicine said 90-day postoperative mortality is considered to be a"legitimate measure" of surgery quality. The time period represents morbidity rates after surgery and during monitoring, and researchers have looked at various time periods in the past, including 30-day and 100-day.

The authors of the British Journal of Surgery study said there is still limited evidence on the value of sex diversity for health care teams, because of a lack of published reports on the subject.
