Michael Ulm

About

Dr. Michael Ulm is a gynecologic surgeon and researcher dedicated to advancing patient outcomes in robotic surgery. His work centers on optimizing perioperative care and refining surgical techniques in minimally invasive gynecologic procedures. Dr. Ulm’s most impactful study, “Position-related injury is uncommon in robotic gynecologic surgery” (27 citations), provides critical safety data, reassuring surgeons about the low risk of positioning complications. He has also made significant contributions to postoperative pain management, as demonstrated by his randomized trial comparing Celecoxib versus Ketorolac (14 citations), which offers evidence-based guidance for enhanced recovery. In surgical technique, his randomized controlled trial on vaginal cuff closure (7 citations) evaluated barbed versus standard suture, addressing both operative time and cost efficiency. Additionally, his work on preventing postoperative nausea and vomiting using transdermal scopolamine (3 citations) highlights his commitment to improving patient comfort. Through these focused clinical trials, Dr. Ulm has generated practical, high-quality evidence that directly informs surgical practice and enhances recovery for women undergoing robotic gynecologic surgery.
