About
Young Eun Moon is a dedicated anesthesiology researcher whose work focuses on optimizing perioperative care and patient safety during robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP). Her key research areas include postoperative pain management, the physiological effects of surgical positioning, and hemorheological changes during minimally invasive procedures. Moon’s most cited study (22 citations) is a prospective randomized controlled trial demonstrating the analgesic efficacy of intrathecal morphine combined with bupivacaine for early postoperative pain control in RALP patients, providing evidence for enhanced recovery protocols. In a complementary observational study (8 citations), she investigated how the steep Trendelenburg position with pneumoperitoneum alters whole-blood viscosity during RALP, offering critical insights into thromboembolic risk and intraoperative hemodynamics. By systematically examining both pain relief strategies and the physiological consequences of surgical positioning, Moon has contributed valuable clinical data that helps anesthesiologists tailor safer, more effective care for patients undergoing complex urologic robotic surgery. Her work bridges the gap between practical pain management and deeper understanding of intraoperative physiology.
