About
Craig S. Jabaley’s research sits at the critical intersection of anesthesiology, critical care, and emerging health technologies. His most influential work challenges established clinical assumptions about regional anesthesia in cardiac surgery. In a 2018 study (36 citations), he demonstrated that the serratus anterior plane block for minimally invasive coronary bypass was paradoxically associated with *higher* opioid consumption, not lower—a counterintuitive finding that prompted re-evaluation of analgesic protocols. He replicated this pattern in a 2020 study (19 citations) on erector spinae blocks for robotic coronary bypass, again finding no reduction in postoperative opioid use. These contributions have reshaped evidence-based practice in perioperative pain management. More recently, Jabaley has turned his analytical lens toward the future of critical care. His 2025 qualitative study (3 citations) explores clinicians’ perceptions of robotics for ICU task automation, addressing workforce challenges and pandemic-driven demands. By systematically investigating both current clinical interventions and future technological integration, Jabaley provides a rare dual perspective: rigorous scrutiny of today’s practices and thoughtful guidance for tomorrow’s innovations.
