About

Jan Goedeke is a leading researcher in pediatric surgery and surgical simulation, with a focus on the intersection of human factors and robotic surgical performance. His most-cited work, "Impact of sleep deprivation on surgical performance on a robotic surgery simulator" (2024), has garnered 1 citation and represents a critical contribution to understanding how fatigue affects precision in robotic-assisted procedures. Goedeke’s research primarily explores the cognitive and physiological demands of minimally invasive surgery, particularly in pediatric populations, where he investigates how sleep loss, stress, and ergonomic factors impact surgical outcomes. His work has practical implications for improving training protocols and patient safety, as it highlights the need for fatigue management in high-stakes surgical environments. Beyond this study, Goedeke has collaborated extensively with multidisciplinary teams, including anesthesiologists and simulation experts, to develop evidence-based guidelines for robotic surgery training. His contributions are particularly notable for bridging the gap between clinical practice and simulation-based education, offering actionable insights for surgeons and trainees. With a growing body of work, Goedeke continues to shape the future of pediatric robotic surgery, emphasizing the importance of human performance optimization in advancing surgical care.
