About

Sang Kee Min is a leading anesthesiology researcher whose work focuses on optimizing perioperative respiratory care, particularly in minimally invasive and robotic surgeries. His major contributions center on the interplay between neuromuscular blockade, pneumoperitoneum pressure, and patient positioning—critical factors in preventing pulmonary complications during laparoscopic procedures. His highly cited 2021 study, "Effects of deep neuromuscular block with low-pressure pneumoperitoneum on respiratory mechanics and biotrauma in a steep Trendelenburg position," demonstrated that deep neuromuscular blockade combined with low-pressure pneumoperitoneum significantly improves respiratory mechanics and reduces biotrauma compared to conventional approaches. Garnering 18 citations, this work has influenced clinical protocols for robotic gynecologic surgery, offering an evidence-based strategy to enhance patient safety during prolonged steep Trendelenburg positioning. Min’s research bridges anesthesiology and surgical innovation, providing actionable insights for reducing ventilator-induced lung injury and improving postoperative outcomes. His findings are particularly valuable for anesthesiologists and surgeons seeking to balance surgical exposure with pulmonary protection, making him a key voice in the evolution of enhanced recovery pathways for complex laparoscopic procedures.
