About
Dr. Eun Hee Chun is a leading anesthesiologist and perioperative researcher whose work focuses on optimizing mechanical ventilation strategies during surgery, particularly in robotic and gynecological procedures. Her most-cited study, published in 2019, investigates the effects of low versus high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) combined with low tidal volume ventilation in patients undergoing robotic gynecological surgery in the steep Trendelenburg position. Using electrical impedance tomography, Dr. Chun demonstrated how different PEEP levels influence lung mechanics and regional ventilation, providing critical insights for preventing ventilator-induced lung injury in this high-risk surgical population. This work has garnered 25 citations, reflecting its relevance to intraoperative respiratory management. Beyond this landmark paper, Dr. Chun’s research addresses the delicate balance between maintaining oxygenation and minimizing barotrauma during prolonged pneumoperitoneum and head-down positioning. Her contributions have practical implications for anesthesiologists seeking evidence-based PEEP strategies, and her use of advanced monitoring techniques like electrical impedance tomography underscores her commitment to precision medicine in the operating room. Dr. Chun’s findings continue to shape clinical guidelines for protective ventilation in minimally invasive surgery.
