About
Mandy Mangham is a perioperative nursing specialist whose work centers on patient safety and staff experiences during robotically assisted laparoscopic surgery (RALS). Her research addresses the critical yet often overlooked challenge of positioning anaesthetised patients in minimally invasive surgical settings, ensuring both clinical safety and patient-centred care. Her most cited paper, *Positioning of the Anaesthetised Patient during Robotically Assisted Laparoscopic Surgery: Perioperative Staff Experiences* (2016, 9 citations), captures frontline insights from the Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust, where RALS was still emerging. A follow-up study (2017, 2 citations) reinforces her commitment to translating staff experiences into safer protocols. Mangham’s work is notable for bridging surgical innovation with practical, compassionate care—highlighting how team communication and ergonomic considerations directly impact patient outcomes. Her contributions are especially valuable for perioperative teams adopting robotic technologies, offering evidence-based guidance that prioritises dignity and safety. Through her research, Mangham demonstrates that even as surgery becomes more automated, the human elements of positioning, comfort, and staff expertise remain indispensable.
