About
Zohreh Schuessler’s research centers on the human and clinical dimensions of robotic-assisted surgery, with a particular focus on perioperative nursing and nurse anaesthetist experiences. Her most influential work, “Perceptions and experiences of perioperative nurses and nurse anaesthetists in robotic‐assisted surgery” (2019, 42 citations), provides critical insight into the factors affecting nursing care during robotic-assisted laparoscopic procedures, highlighting the unique challenges and adaptations required in this rapidly evolving surgical environment. This study has become a foundational reference for understanding the non-technical aspects of robotic surgery implementation. Schuessler also contributed to the surgical outcomes literature with her examination of robotic-assisted hysterectomy in community hospital settings, documenting seven years of institutional experience. Her work bridges the gap between technological advancement and frontline clinical practice, emphasizing that successful robotic surgery depends not only on surgeon skill but also on the preparedness and perspectives of the entire perioperative team. By giving voice to nurses and nurse anaesthetists, Schuessler has helped shape safer, more patient-centered approaches to robotic surgery, making her research essential reading for healthcare professionals and students interested in the intersection of technology, teamwork, and patient care.
