About
Brian Trihn is a surgical outcomes researcher whose work focuses on the perioperative complications and risk stratification of urologic oncology patients, particularly those undergoing nephrectomy. His most influential study, published in 2017, leveraged a national multi-institutional database to characterize the incidence, timing, and risk factors for venous thromboembolism (VTE) after kidney cancer surgery. This work, cited over 30 times, provided critical evidence that VTE is a significant and often underappreciated complication following nephrectomy, with specific risk factors that could guide prophylactic protocols. By quantifying the temporal risk window and identifying high-risk subgroups, Trihn’s research has helped shape clinical guidelines for thromboprophylaxis in urologic surgery. His contributions underscore the importance of using large-scale administrative data to improve patient safety and inform evidence-based perioperative care.
