About
Bruno Federico is an emerging anesthesiology researcher focused on perioperative neurocognitive outcomes and neuromuscular management in high-risk surgical populations. His work centers on two key areas: cerebral hemodynamics during robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy and optimized recovery from neuromuscular blockade in elderly patients. Federico’s 2023 study on the relationship between middle cerebral artery pulsatility index and delayed neurocognitive recovery—which has already garnered 3 citations—was the first to investigate whether cerebral blood flow alterations during steep Trendelenburg positioning and pneumoperitoneum are linked to postoperative cognitive disorders, a critical gap in robotic surgery safety. His 2025 paper on sugammadex dosing for elderly patients undergoing the same procedure (1 citation) addresses the challenge of tailoring neuromuscular blockade reversal to aging physiology. Though early in his career, Federico’s work bridges neuroanesthesia and geriatric perioperative care, with implications for reducing cognitive decline in thousands of patients annually. His research is particularly notable for targeting a rapidly growing surgical population—older adults undergoing robotic procedures—and for its potential to establish evidence-based protocols that balance surgical conditions with neurological safety.
