About
Jiwon An is a distinguished anesthesiologist and researcher whose work centers on optimizing perioperative care, particularly in the context of robotic and laparoscopic surgeries. Her most impactful contribution, a 2011 study comparing volume-controlled and pressure-controlled ventilation during steep Trendelenburg positioning for robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, has garnered over 100 citations and remains a cornerstone reference for anesthesiologists managing ventilation strategies in these complex procedures. This research directly addressed critical challenges in maintaining lung function and hemodynamic stability during prolonged, steep head-down tilt, offering evidence-based guidance that has shaped clinical protocols worldwide. Beyond this landmark paper, Dr. An’s broader portfolio explores anesthetic management, patient safety, and outcomes in minimally invasive surgery. Her work is characterized by a rigorous, patient-centered approach, translating technical nuances into actionable insights for the operating room. With a citation count reflecting her influence, Dr. An stands as a key figure in advancing the safety and efficacy of anesthesia for modern surgical innovations, making her research essential reading for clinicians and trainees navigating the evolving landscape of robotic-assisted procedures.
