About
Taisuke Jo is a urological surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on occupational safety in surgical settings, particularly the epidemiology and prevention of needlestick injuries (NSIs). His most cited study, a 15-year multi-institutional review from the Chugoku–Shikoku Japan Urological Consortium, provides critical data on NSI patterns during urologic surgery—a previously underexplored area. By analyzing incidents across seven Japanese institutions, Jo’s research highlights the frequency, mechanisms, and risk factors of these injuries, offering evidence-based recommendations to improve protective protocols and reduce occupational hazards for healthcare workers. Although early in his citation impact (2 citations), this work addresses a vital patient safety and workforce health issue, bridging clinical urology with occupational medicine. Jo’s contributions underscore the importance of systematic surveillance in surgical disciplines, positioning him as a key voice in advancing safer operating room practices. His findings are especially relevant for trainees and practitioners seeking to mitigate sharps-related risks in urology.
