About

Tristan Grogan is a clinical researcher whose work centers on perioperative pain management and surgical outcomes, with a particular focus on innovative interventions for head and neck cancer patients. His most cited study, "Stellate Ganglion Blockade for Acute Pain Management After Transoral Robotic Surgery" (2025), investigates the use of stellate ganglion blockade (SGB) as a novel adjunct for controlling pharyngeal pain following transoral robotic surgery (TORS) and neck dissection for oropharyngeal carcinoma. This work addresses a critical clinical challenge—severe postoperative pain in a delicate surgical site—by evaluating SGB’s potential to reduce opioid reliance and improve recovery. While early in its citation impact, Grogan’s research contributes to a growing evidence base for regional anesthesia techniques in complex oncologic surgeries. His findings offer practical insights for anesthesiologists and surgeons seeking multimodal pain strategies, highlighting his role in advancing patient-centered care. Grogan’s work underscores the importance of integrating targeted nerve blocks into modern surgical protocols, positioning him as a promising voice in the intersection of anesthesiology and head and neck oncology.
