About
Hee Jung Kong is a clinician-researcher specializing in anesthesiology, with a particular focus on perioperative management, hemodynamic stability, and pain control in minimally invasive and robotic surgery. Kong's work sits at the intersection of pharmacology and surgical care, examining how anesthetic agents and neuromuscular blocking strategies can be optimized to improve patient outcomes. Kong's most impactful contribution to date—garnering 33 citations—is a propensity score-matched analysis comparing remimazolam and sevoflurane anesthesia during robotic gastrectomy, offering clinicians valuable evidence that remimazolam may confer superior hemodynamic stability. This work has direct implications for anesthetic decision-making in oncological surgery. Additional research has explored the comparative analgesic profiles of oxycodone versus fentanyl in patient-controlled analgesia, contributing clarity to opioid dosing strategies where visceral pain predominates. Kong has also investigated how deep neuromuscular blockade influences perioperative stress responses and examined the gastrointestinal effects of reversal agents such as sugammadex versus neostigmine following robotic thyroidectomy. Collectively, Kong's body of work reflects a consistent commitment to evidence-based perioperative care, helping surgical teams navigate nuanced pharmacological choices to enhance patient safety and recovery.
