About
Dr. Andrew W. Gorlin is a clinical anesthesiologist whose research focuses on perioperative drug dosing, opioid administration, and patient safety in the operating room and post-anesthesia care unit (PACU). His most cited work investigates how the ampule size of fentanyl influences perioperative intravenous opioid dosing, revealing that packaging can subtly but significantly affect clinical decision-making and patient outcomes. This study, with 10 citations, highlights the often-overlooked impact of drug formulation on real-world anesthesia practice. Dr. Gorlin’s contributions address a critical gap in understanding how logistical factors—such as vial size—can alter medication administration patterns and PACU recovery. By bridging clinical pharmacology and systems-based practice, his research promotes safer, more standardized perioperative care. His work is particularly valuable for anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists, and pharmacy teams seeking to optimize opioid stewardship and reduce variability in dosing. Dr. Gorlin’s findings underscore the importance of considering drug presentation as a modifiable factor in improving surgical outcomes and patient safety.
