About
Tohru Miyagi is a leading researcher in urological surgery, with a specific focus on optimizing perioperative outcomes in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). His work primarily investigates the physiological impacts of surgical positioning and the implementation of enhanced recovery protocols to improve patient comfort and safety. Miyagi’s most influential study, with 38 citations, systematically examined the cardiovascular and respiratory effects of varying head-down angles during RARP, providing critical data to balance surgical visualization with patient stability. He further advanced the field through urodynamic evaluations before and immediately after RARP, offering insights into early postoperative urinary function. His recent work, though with fewer citations, demonstrates a forward-looking commitment to patient-centered care by evaluating the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol, specifically its favorable impact on reducing postoperative abdominal symptoms. Through these contributions, Miyagi has helped refine surgical standards, directly influencing how clinicians manage the physiological challenges of prolonged Trendelenburg positioning and paving the way for more comfortable, evidence-based recovery pathways in robotic prostate surgery.
