About
Maria Papale is a clinical researcher specializing in thoracic surgery and perioperative pain management, with a particular focus on enhancing recovery outcomes for patients undergoing minimally invasive lung cancer surgery. Her work centers on the intersection of locoregional anaesthesia, multimodal analgesia, and robotic-assisted procedures, aiming to reduce postoperative pain and opioid reliance. In her most-cited pilot study, she pioneered a multimodal evaluation framework to assess anaesthesia efficacy after robotic pulmonary lobectomy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), demonstrating how integrated pain management strategies can improve patient comfort and accelerate recovery. Though early in her citation impact, this 2023 paper has already garnered attention for its practical implications in thoracic oncology. Papale’s research contributes to the growing evidence base for enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols, positioning her as a rising voice in the optimization of perioperative care. Her work is particularly relevant for surgeons and anaesthesiologists seeking to refine pain control in robotic thoracic procedures, and it underscores the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration in modern surgical oncology.
