About
Maja Vejlgaard is a clinical researcher whose work centers on improving surgical outcomes for bladder cancer patients, with a particular focus on radical cystectomy. Her major contributions lie in rigorous, comparative effectiveness research that challenges surgical conventions. Vejlgaard led a landmark double-blinded, randomised feasibility trial comparing open versus robot-assisted radical cystectomy, examining not only standard endpoints but also patient-centered outcomes like quality of life—a study that has garnered 25 citations and set a new standard for trial design in urologic oncology. She has also conducted critical investigations into postoperative complications, including a detailed analysis of acute kidney injury following radical cystectomy, identifying incidence rates and risk factors that inform perioperative management. Additionally, her work on haemodynamic and respiratory outcomes during these procedures provides essential data on the physiological impact of surgical positioning and pneumoperitoneum. Through these studies, Vejlgaard has established herself as a methodical investigator dedicated to generating high-quality evidence that directly influences surgical decision-making and patient care in bladder cancer treatment.
