About
Dr. Jungmin Yi is a distinguished anesthesiology researcher whose work centers on optimizing perioperative pain management, particularly through pharmacokinetic modeling and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA). Her major contributions lie in developing evidence-based dosing strategies that enhance analgesic efficacy while minimizing adverse effects. In her landmark 2016 study comparing pharmacokinetic model-based fentanyl dosing to conventional regimens for robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy, Dr. Yi demonstrated that model-driven approaches can overcome the limitations of traditional PCA—which relies solely on demand boluses without basal infusion—by providing more consistent and individualized pain relief. This work has garnered 6 citations and represents a significant step toward precision analgesia in surgical recovery. Dr. Yi’s research addresses a critical gap in postoperative care, where inadequate pain management remains a persistent challenge. Her findings have implications for improving patient outcomes across various surgical contexts, and her methodological approach continues to influence the development of smarter, safer analgesic protocols in modern anesthesia practice.
