About
Gitte Wrist Lam is a leading Danish anaesthesiologist and surgical researcher whose work sits at the critical intersection of anaesthesia and advanced robotic surgery. Her primary research focuses on optimizing perioperative care for patients undergoing complex urological and transabdominal procedures, with a particular emphasis on comparing total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) to traditional inhalational methods. Her landmark 2017 study on TIVA versus inhalational anaesthesia for robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery (65 citations) has become a foundational reference for clinicians seeking to minimize perioperative risk and improve patient outcomes in this rapidly evolving surgical field. Dr. Lam has also made significant contributions to the literature on robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC), co-authoring a comprehensive 11-year Danish series evaluating oncological and perioperative outcomes. Most recently, she is a key investigator in the DaBlaCa-16 MOSAIC randomized controlled trial, which explores the feasibility of a retrosigmoid ileal conduit to reduce ureteroenteric strictures—a common and debilitating complication. Her work directly informs evidence-based anaesthetic and surgical protocols, bridging the gap between technical innovation and patient safety.
