About
Dr. Serena Murphy is a leading investigator in perioperative medicine and surgical physiology, with a focused expertise in the pulmonary mechanics of robotic-assisted laparoscopic surgery. Her most-cited work, a 2020 study garnering 53 citations, fundamentally advanced the understanding of how body habitus, pneumoperitoneum, and Trendelenburg positioning independently impair lung function during these procedures. By demonstrating that increasing body mass index correlates with greater mechanical strain and alveolar collapse, Dr. Murphy provided critical, evidence-based insights that directly inform intraoperative ventilation strategies and patient safety protocols. This pivotal contribution has shaped clinical guidelines for managing high-risk surgical populations, highlighting her ability to translate complex physiological interactions into actionable improvements in surgical care. Her research continues to bridge the gap between surgical technique and anesthesiology, making her a key voice in optimizing outcomes for patients undergoing minimally invasive procedures.
