About

Michele L. McCarroll is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of surgical safety, robotics, and telemedicine, with a particular focus on gynecologic surgery. Her most influential contribution is the development and implementation of an interactive computerized surgical checklist for robotic-assisted gynecologic surgery (2014, 21 citations), a practical tool designed to enhance patient safety and standardize complex procedures. She has also advanced the understanding of safety culture within the gynecology robotics operating room (2014, 14 citations), highlighting the importance of team communication and systemic protocols in high-stakes surgical environments. More recently, McCarroll has explored the use of telepresence robots for behavioral health in interprofessional practice and education (2020, 9 citations), a study that gained particular relevance during the COVID-19 pandemic as healthcare systems rapidly adopted telemedicine frameworks. Her work bridges the gap between technological innovation and clinical practice, offering actionable solutions for improving surgical outcomes and expanding access to care.
