About
Dr. Kiang Loong Ng is a pediatric anesthesiologist whose work centers on improving perioperative care for children with neurodevelopmental disorders, particularly autism spectrum disorder (ASD). His primary research addresses the critical challenge of safely and humanely transferring special needs children to the operating room and inducing anesthesia—a process often marred by patient distress, uncooperative behavior, and the need for physical restraint. Dr. Ng’s major contribution is the development of the I-MOVE (Intuitive Concept Mobility Systems for Perioperative Transfer and Induction of Anaesthesia) system, a novel mobility device designed to facilitate seamless, gentle transfer of these children from their bed to the operating table without lifting or manual restraint. His foundational paper, “Enhancing perioperative transfer of special needs children with the I-MOVE” (2017, 4 citations), introduced this concept, while his follow-up work, “IMOVE—An Intuitive Concept Mobility Systems…” (2020, 3 citations), refined the approach. Though citation counts are modest, the work’s impact is profound in pediatric anesthesia, offering a compassionate, practical solution that reduces trauma for patients and caregivers alike. Dr. Ng’s innovation represents a significant step toward more dignified, patient-centered care for vulnerable populations.
