About

Selby Johnson is a clinical researcher whose work focuses on perioperative medicine and the optimization of surgical outcomes, particularly in thoracic surgery. Johnson’s most cited study, “Association Between Gabapentinoids and Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients Undergoing Thoracic Surgery” (2021), has garnered 13 citations, marking a significant contribution to the understanding of medication-related risks in high-risk surgical populations. This research critically examines the use of gabapentinoids—commonly prescribed for pain management—and their potential link to increased pulmonary complications after thoracic procedures, offering vital insights for anesthesiologists and surgeons. By highlighting these associations, Johnson’s work informs evidence-based prescribing practices and patient safety protocols. Though early in their career, Johnson’s focused investigation into postoperative pulmonary outcomes demonstrates a commitment to bridging pharmacology and clinical care, with implications for reducing morbidity in vulnerable patients. Their research serves as a foundation for future studies on perioperative risk stratification, making Johnson a promising voice in surgical medicine.
