About
Elsa M. Arvide is a surgical researcher whose work focuses on advancing minimally invasive oncologic surgery and improving postoperative outcomes, particularly in gastric and pancreatic procedures. Her research centers on the implementation and evaluation of robotic gastrectomy programs, demonstrating that structured adoption protocols can yield short-term outcomes comparable to established open techniques while reducing surgical trauma. Arvide has made significant contributions to opioid stewardship in surgery, showing that robotic gastrectomy is associated with lower postoperative opioid use compared to open approaches. Her landmark study on distal pancreatectomy revealed that higher opioid consumption independently predicts clinically significant pancreatic fistulas, providing actionable evidence for enhanced recovery pathways. With over 36 citations across her most influential papers, Arvide’s work has practical implications for reducing surgical complications and optimizing pain management. She has also refined risk-stratified criteria for drain fluid amylase removal after pancreatoduodenectomy, helping to standardize postoperative care. Her research bridges the gap between technological innovation in robotic surgery and evidence-based perioperative management, making her a rising voice in gastrointestinal surgical oncology.
