About
Dr. Jang Eun Cho is a clinical researcher whose work centers on perioperative renal protection, particularly in the context of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALRP). His major contributions focus on the renoprotective potential of nicardipine, a calcium channel blocker, during these complex urologic surgeries. In his most cited study (2009, 18 citations), Dr. Cho demonstrated that nicardipine administration could mitigate postoperative renal dysfunction in patients undergoing RALRP. He further extended this work in a 2014 study (4 citations) specifically targeting patients with pre-existing renal insufficiency (eGFR <60 ml/min per 1.73 m²), showing that nicardipine provided significant renoprotective benefits even in this higher-risk population. These investigations have helped establish a pharmacological strategy to preserve kidney function during pneumoperitoneum and surgical stress. Dr. Cho’s research addresses a critical gap in perioperative medicine, offering evidence-based guidance for anesthesiologists and surgeons managing patients with compromised renal function. His work underscores the importance of tailored intraoperative interventions to improve surgical outcomes.
