About

Dr. Jabra Zarka is a surgical outcomes researcher whose work focuses on optimizing perioperative care in urologic oncology, particularly through the lens of robotic-assisted surgery. His most-cited study, published in 2022, leverages the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database to identify preoperative patient characteristics that predict prolonged length of hospital stay (pLOS) following robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). With 17 citations, this work provides actionable insights for risk stratification and resource allocation, helping clinicians anticipate which patients may require extended postoperative monitoring. By analyzing large-scale, multi-institutional data, Dr. Zarka contributes to evidence-based strategies that enhance recovery pathways and reduce healthcare burdens. His research underscores a commitment to improving surgical quality and patient outcomes through rigorous data analysis, making his findings valuable for urologists, hospital administrators, and researchers focused on value-based care. As a rising voice in surgical outcomes research, Dr. Zarka’s work bridges the gap between big data analytics and clinical decision-making, offering a practical framework for personalizing postoperative management in robotic urologic surgery.
