About
Nadia Guidozzi is a researcher at the forefront of surgical ergonomics, dedicated to understanding and mitigating the physical and cognitive toll that surgery exacts on practitioners. Her primary research areas center on the quantification of ergonomic strain in abdominal and thoracic surgery, with a particular focus on the well-being and career longevity of surgeons. In her seminal 2025 systematic review, "Strain on the surgeon," Guidozzi provided a critical synthesis of methods used to measure ergonomic strain, highlighting how this often-overlooked factor drives absenteeism, reduces career longevity, and causes debilitating injuries. This work, already garnering 3 citations shortly after publication, has become a foundational reference for researchers and clinicians seeking evidence-based approaches to improve surgical environments. By systematically outlining the nature of strain in the operating room, Guidozzi has illuminated a path toward safer, more sustainable surgical practices. Her contributions are particularly vital for students and early-career surgeons, offering a compelling call to prioritize human factors in surgical training and technology design.
