About
Itunu Arojo is a clinical researcher whose work lies at the intersection of surgical recovery and integrative medicine, with a primary focus on improving patient outcomes in urologic oncology. Her most cited study, a 2022 randomized controlled trial, investigated the impact of music therapy on postoperative recovery following robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. This pioneering work demonstrated that a simple, cost-effective intervention—music—could significantly reduce postoperative pain, anxiety, and narcotic use in a modern surgical setting. Garnering 11 citations, the paper has influenced discussions on non-pharmacologic pain management and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols. Arojo’s research is notable for bridging the gap between high-tech robotic surgery and low-tech, patient-centered comfort measures, offering a scalable solution to the opioid crisis. Her contributions highlight the value of holistic, evidence-based approaches in surgical care, making her a compelling voice for integrating music therapy into standard postoperative pathways.
