About
Dr. Ziyu Tan is a rising investigator in orthopedic surgery and health services research, with a focused expertise in robotic-assisted arthroplasty and perioperative outcomes. Her most cited work, a 2025 study on healthcare resource utilization for the VELYS™ robotic-assisted solution versus manual total knee arthroplasty, has already garnered 6 citations—a strong early indicator of impact. In this landmark analysis, Dr. Tan leveraged electronic medical records from a single surgeon at a U.S. critical access hospital to demonstrate that robotic assistance can reduce length of stay and postoperative resource use without compromising safety. This contribution is pivotal for value-based care discussions, offering real-world evidence that advanced technology may streamline recovery and lower costs. Beyond this study, Dr. Tan’s research portfolio examines surgical efficiency, patient-reported outcomes, and the integration of robotics into community practice. Her work bridges engineering precision with clinical pragmatism, making her a key voice in the ongoing debate over the cost-effectiveness of robotic surgery. As her citation count grows, Dr. Tan is positioned to shape how hospitals adopt and evaluate these technologies.
