About
Dr. Chang Young Jeong is a gynecologic surgeon and clinical researcher whose work focuses on the safety and hemodynamic consequences of vasopressin use in minimally invasive gynecologic surgery. Her research addresses a critical, under-recognized risk: the life-threatening cardiovascular complications that can arise from the local infiltration of vasopressin, a vasoconstrictor commonly used to reduce hemorrhage during procedures like myomectomy. Dr. Jeong’s most cited paper, a 2018 case report in *Obstetrics & Gynecology* (16 citations), documents a rare but severe instance of cardiac arrest following intramyometrial vasopressin injection during a robotic-assisted laparoscopic myomectomy, alerting surgeons to the drug’s potential for inducing bradycardia and myocardial infarction. She further explored this phenomenon in a 2020 study (6 citations), analyzing hemodynamic changes after accidental high-dose vasopressin infiltration and highlighting how individual variations in the sympathetic and renin-angiotensin systems make systemic effects unpredictable. By systematically documenting these adverse events, Dr. Jeong has made a vital contribution to perioperative safety, urging the adoption of lower, more carefully titrated doses and enhanced intraoperative monitoring. Her work serves as a crucial cautionary reference for gynecologic surgeons and anesthesiologists, directly influencing clinical guidelines to prevent catastrophic outcomes.
