Excellence in evidenced based care in Paediatric Surgery
Kenya Association of Paediatric Surgeons (KAPS) was officially registered in 1992 as a Kenyan professional organization dedicated to paediatric surgery. KAPS vision is Excellence in evidence-based care in paediatric surgery. We have a dedicated mission to promote quality surgical care to paediatric patients in Kenya through evidence-based surgical care and to develop of standards and guidelines that influence public policy in paediatric surgery through a community of Paediatric Surgeons.
We have in the past held free surgical camps annually in different counties. These camps have had significant impact in the paediatric population in alleviating pain and suffering in children who cannot access paediatric surgical services. This plays an immense role in reduction of children mortality in line with the 5th millennium development goal.
