About
Chi-Bum In is a leading anesthesiologist and clinical researcher whose work focuses on optimizing perioperative care for patients undergoing robotic-assisted surgeries, particularly urological procedures. His research addresses the unique physiological challenges posed by steep Trendelenburg positioning and high-pressure pneumoperitoneum, which can elevate intracranial pressure and complicate ventilation. In a landmark randomized trial (49 citations), Dr. In demonstrated that recruitment manoeuvres significantly reduce perioperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients undergoing robotic radical prostatectomy. He also pioneered the use of optic nerve sheath diameter as a non-invasive surrogate for intracranial pressure during these procedures, comparing desflurane and total intravenous anesthesia (21 citations). Additionally, his work on catheter-related bladder discomfort introduced nefopam as an effective non-narcotic intervention (6 citations), improving postoperative recovery. Dr. In’s contributions have advanced the safety and comfort of robotic surgery, making him a key figure in the field of anesthesia for minimally invasive oncology.
