About

Dr. Sujata Saha is a leading researcher in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery, with a focused expertise in understanding how operative duration impacts patient outcomes. Her major contributions center on the critical relationship between surgical time and perioperative morbidity, particularly in laparoscopic and robotic hysterectomy. Dr. Saha’s landmark 2015 study, which has garnered 138 citations, definitively demonstrated that longer operative times during benign laparoscopic and robotic hysterectomy are significantly associated with increased 30-day complications. This work, building on her earlier 2014 investigation using the National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database, provides essential, evidence-based benchmarks for surgeons to optimize efficiency and enhance patient safety. By rigorously analyzing large-scale, multi-institutional data, Dr. Saha has helped establish operative time as a key modifiable risk factor in gynecologic surgery. Her research directly informs surgical planning, training, and quality improvement initiatives, making her a pivotal voice in the push for safer, more efficient minimally invasive procedures. Her findings are indispensable for any surgeon or trainee seeking to minimize complications and improve recovery for their patients.
