About
Christine Oryhan is a leading anesthesiology researcher whose work focuses on optimizing perioperative care, particularly through opioid-sparing and opioid-free anesthetic techniques. Her most impactful study, a prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial published in 2024, investigates the effect of opioid-free anesthesia on postoperative opioid consumption after laparoscopic bariatric surgery. This work addresses a critical clinical challenge: balancing effective pain management with the need to minimize opioid-related adverse effects in a high-risk surgical population. With 6 citations already, this landmark trial has quickly influenced clinical protocols and sparked further investigation into non-opioid analgesic strategies. Oryhan’s research is notable for its rigorous methodology and direct translational impact, offering evidence-based alternatives that can reduce postoperative complications and improve recovery outcomes. Her contributions are particularly significant in the context of the ongoing opioid crisis, positioning her as a key voice in advancing safer, more sustainable perioperative pain management. Her work continues to shape best practices for bariatric and other surgical patients.
