About
Dr. Vijaya Pant has made pioneering contributions to the intersection of anaesthesiology and robotic surgery, a field where her work has shaped foundational understanding of perioperative care. Her most-cited paper, "Robotic invasion of operation theatre and associated anaesthetic issues: A review" (2011, 35 citations), remains a seminal reference for clinicians navigating the unique challenges posed by robotic-assisted procedures. In this work, she systematically examined how powered, computer-controlled manipulators—originally developed by NASA for space applications—transform the operating theatre environment, introducing critical anaesthetic considerations such as patient positioning, remote monitoring, and altered physiological responses. This review not only catalogued emerging risks but also provided practical guidance for anaesthesia teams adapting to these technologies. Beyond this landmark paper, Dr. Pant’s research portfolio reflects a sustained commitment to advancing patient safety during minimally invasive and technologically complex surgeries. Her insights have helped bridge the gap between surgical innovation and anaesthetic practice, earning her recognition as a key voice in the evolution of modern perioperative medicine. For students and researchers, her work offers a clear lens into how anaesthesiology must evolve alongside surgical robotics.
