About

Kim Phung Nguyen is a researcher whose work spans the intersection of emerging technology adoption and clinical medicine, demonstrating a unique breadth of inquiry. Her primary research areas include the acceptance and integration of Industry 4.0 technologies—specifically collaborative robots (cobots)—in manufacturing, as well as rare surgical pathologies. Nguyen’s major contribution lies in applying the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) to assess cobot implementation in Vietnam’s garment sector, a critical industry where her work addresses safety and productivity challenges in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. This study, with 3 citations, provides foundational insights for technology adoption in developing economies. In a striking contrast, her clinical case report on intestinal obstruction from cecal volvulus due to intestinal nonrotation (1 citation) highlights her ability to document and analyze exceptionally rare adult presentations of congenital malrotation, contributing to surgical knowledge. Nguyen’s work is notable for bridging engineering and medicine, offering practical frameworks for automation adoption while advancing understanding of uncommon surgical conditions. Her research is valuable for students and professionals interested in technology acceptance models, Industry 4.0 applications in textiles, and rare gastrointestinal pathologies.
