About

Samuel Deem is a urologic surgeon and researcher whose work focuses on improving surgical outcomes and addressing critical public health issues within the field of urology. His research spans key areas including minimally invasive surgical techniques, post-operative pain management, and patient safety. Deem’s most cited study, “Intraoperative mannitol during robotic-assisted-laparoscopic partial nephrectomy” (15 citations), contributes to optimizing renal preservation during nephron-sparing surgery. He has also made notable contributions to understanding complications in robotic prostatectomy, as seen in his work on transient paralysis after the procedure, and has been at the forefront of the opioid crisis response in urology. His 2020 study, “Post-Operative Opioid Prescribing Practices and Trends Among Urology Residents in the United States” (6 citations), was instrumental in characterizing and reforming prescribing habits among trainees. Through these investigations, Deem demonstrates a commitment to evidence-based improvements in surgical care, from the operating room to post-operative recovery, making his work highly relevant for clinicians and researchers focused on modern urologic practice and patient-centered outcomes.
