About
Moutamn Sadoun is a clinician-researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of metabolic surgery, diabetes management, and critical care complications. His most cited paper, "Post-Operative Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis in a Patient With SGLT-2 Inhibitor Use and Recent Sleeve Gastrectomy" (2021, 10 citations), provides a detailed case study of a 51-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes who developed euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (euDKA) following robotic-assisted sleeve gastrectomy. This work highlights a dangerous, often-missed complication in bariatric patients using SGLT-2 inhibitors—a class of drugs that can mask typical hyperglycemic warning signs. Sadoun’s contribution is significant for raising awareness among surgeons and endocrinologists about the need for careful perioperative monitoring and medication management. By documenting the patient’s progression from tachycardia to altered mental status, his research underscores the importance of early recognition and intervention. Though his citation count is modest, his work has immediate clinical relevance for the growing population undergoing bariatric surgery while on modern diabetes therapies. Sadoun’s research serves as a critical reminder that even routine post-operative care requires vigilance for rare but life-threatening metabolic crises.
