To complete a population-based survey that is assessing unmet surgical needs in Nepal two years after the 2014 earthquake. This study is a replication of a 2014 population-based survey of surgical needs in the same area.

Another survey undertaken in 2016 is documenting the continued limitations  of 70 hospitals affected by the 2014 earthquake.
