About

Francesco Carli is a pioneering anesthesiologist and perioperative medicine researcher whose work has fundamentally reshaped how surgical patients are prepared for major operations. His primary research areas include perioperative care, multimodal prehabilitation, and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols. Dr. Carli's landmark 2023 study on multimodal prehabilitation for colorectal cancer surgery, which has garnered 429 citations, demonstrated that optimizing patients' physical and nutritional status before surgery significantly reduces postoperative complications and improves functional recovery. This work represents a paradigm shift from reactive postoperative care to proactive preoperative optimization. His earlier investigations into thoracic epidural anesthesia for cardiac surgery, though less cited, laid important groundwork for understanding regional anesthesia's role in major procedures. Dr. Carli's contributions have established prehabilitation as an essential component of modern surgical care, influencing clinical guidelines worldwide and improving outcomes for thousands of patients. His research continues to inspire a generation of clinicians to view the preoperative period as a critical window for intervention.
