About

Ole Mathiesen is a leading clinical researcher in perioperative pain management and anaesthesiology, with a particular focus on multimodal analgesia and regional anaesthesia techniques. His work has significantly advanced the understanding of how to optimise pain relief while minimising opioid use after major surgeries. Among his most cited contributions is a landmark 2015 randomised clinical trial on the transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block after robot-assisted laparoscopic hysterectomy, which has garnered 41 citations. This study rigorously evaluated the TAP block as an add-on to standard analgesic regimens, providing crucial evidence for its efficacy in gynaecological laparoscopy. Mathiesen’s research is characterised by methodologically robust trial designs that directly inform clinical practice, helping to shape evidence-based protocols for postoperative care. His work has been instrumental in demonstrating the benefits and limitations of specific regional blocks, thereby guiding surgeons and anaesthesiologists in tailoring pain management strategies. With a strong citation record and a focus on patient-centred outcomes, Mathiesen continues to be a key voice in the ongoing effort to improve recovery after surgery through safer, more effective analgesic interventions.
