About

Robert Medairos is a clinician-researcher focused on advancing perioperative care, with a particular emphasis on pain management and opioid reduction in surgical settings. His most cited work, "Pain management following robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy: transitioning to an opioid free regimen" (2021), has garnered 5 citations and represents a pivotal contribution to the growing movement toward opioid-sparing protocols in urologic surgery. By demonstrating the feasibility and efficacy of eliminating opioids from post-procedural pain regimens, Medairos has helped pave the way for safer recovery pathways that mitigate addiction risks while maintaining patient comfort. This research aligns with broader national efforts to combat the opioid crisis, offering evidence-based alternatives for common procedures. Though early in his career, Medairos’s work signals a commitment to translating clinical innovation into tangible improvements in surgical outcomes and public health. His findings are particularly relevant for students and researchers exploring multimodal analgesia, enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols, and the intersection of urology and anesthesiology.
