About

Concetta Anna Dodaro is a leading researcher at the intersection of robotic surgery, transplantation, and digital health innovation. Her work primarily focuses on improving surgical outcomes through advanced technology, with key contributions in robotic-assisted living donor nephrectomy and Health 4.0 integrated systems. Her most cited paper, a systematic review on donor and recipient outcomes following robotic-assisted laparoscopic living donor nephrectomy (37 citations), provides critical evidence on the safety and efficacy of this minimally invasive approach, influencing clinical practices in kidney transplantation. Additionally, her pioneering study on a Health 4.0 integrated system for monitoring patient health during surgical procedures (14 citations) introduces a novel architecture using video see-through headsets to enhance real-time patient monitoring by the surgical team. This work demonstrates her commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology—such as augmented reality and IoT—to improve perioperative care and patient safety. Dodaro’s research not only advances surgical techniques but also bridges the gap between traditional medicine and digital transformation, making her a notable figure in modern surgical innovation. Her systematic reviews and technological frameworks continue to shape evidence-based practices and inspire future research in robotic surgery and health monitoring systems.
