About
Dr. Sai Sandhya is a clinical anesthesiologist whose research focuses on perioperative fluid management, particularly in the context of minimally invasive and robotic surgery. Her most cited work investigates the physiological impact of fluid therapy strategies during robot-assisted colorectal procedures. In a landmark 2020 study, Dr. Sandhya demonstrated that a restrictive fluid regimen, compared to a liberal one, significantly reduces intraoperative lactate levels—a key marker of tissue hypoperfusion and metabolic stress. This finding provides crucial evidence for optimizing fluid balance in robotic surgeries, where the physiological demands differ markedly from open procedures. By challenging traditional liberal fluid protocols, her research contributes to safer, more tailored anesthetic care, potentially reducing postoperative complications and improving recovery. With 7 citations, this work has already informed clinical discussions in anesthesiology and surgical critical care. Dr. Sandhya’s contributions underscore the importance of evidence-based fluid stewardship in the rapidly evolving field of robotic surgery, offering practical guidance for clinicians seeking to enhance patient outcomes through precise intraoperative management.
