About
Dr. Yun Jeong Cho is a dedicated anesthesiologist and pain management researcher whose work focuses on optimizing perioperative analgesia, particularly in minimally invasive urologic surgery. Her key research areas include regional anesthesia techniques, multimodal pain control, and enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols. Dr. Cho’s major contributions center on comparing analgesic modalities for robotic-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy (RALP). In a prospective randomized study (2021, 22 citations), she demonstrated that intrathecal morphine with bupivacaine (ITMB) provides superior early postoperative pain relief compared to standard care. Her subsequent observational study (2020, 15 citations) systematically compared ITMB, rectus sheath blockade, and intravenous patient-controlled analgesia, offering clinicians evidence-based guidance for tailoring pain management in this surgical population. These works have informed practice by highlighting the efficacy of neuraxial techniques in reducing opioid consumption and improving recovery quality. Dr. Cho’s research is notable for its rigorous methodology and direct clinical applicability, helping to shape modern perioperative care in robotic surgery. Her findings continue to influence anesthesiologists seeking safer, more effective pain control strategies.
