About
Je-Do Son is a leading anesthesiologist and pain management researcher whose work focuses on optimizing perioperative care, particularly in the context of minimally invasive surgeries. His most cited study, "Efficacy of ketamine for postoperative pain following robotic thyroidectomy" (2017, 22 citations), addresses a critical clinical challenge: managing the moderate to severe pain caused by percutaneous tunneling during robotic thyroidectomy. In this prospective randomized trial, Son demonstrated that low-dose ketamine significantly reduces postoperative pain and opioid requirements, offering a safer, more effective analgesic strategy for patients. This contribution has influenced enhanced recovery protocols in thyroid surgery and highlighted ketamine’s role beyond depression treatment. Beyond this landmark paper, Son’s broader research explores multimodal analgesia, regional anesthesia techniques, and patient outcomes in head and neck surgeries. With a growing citation impact, his work bridges the gap between surgical innovation and patient-centered pain relief, earning him recognition as a key figure in modern perioperative medicine. For students and researchers, Son’s studies exemplify how rigorous clinical trials can directly improve surgical recovery and patient quality of life.
