About

Dr. Fernanda Nagase is a leading figure in the field of cardiothoracic surgery, with a focused expertise in minimally invasive and robot-assisted coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Her most cited work, a 2020 systematic review and meta-analysis, rigorously evaluated the comparative performance of robot-assisted CABG (RCAB) against conventional CABG (C-CABG). This seminal paper, garnering 24 citations, critically synthesized the existing evidence to clarify the clinical outcomes, safety, and efficacy of RCAB, addressing a key uncertainty in the surgical management of coronary heart disease. Dr. Nagase’s contributions have provided a foundational evidence base for surgeons and researchers, helping to define the role of robotic technology in cardiac surgery. Her work not only highlights the potential benefits of RCAB but also identifies gaps in the literature, guiding future research directions. Through her meticulous analysis, Dr. Nagase has advanced the conversation around surgical innovation, making her a respected voice in the ongoing evolution of cardiac surgical techniques.
