About
Dr. Sara Lozano‐Zahonero is a leading researcher in perioperative respiratory physiology and protective ventilation, with a particular focus on individualised PEEP titration during robotic and laparoscopic surgeries. Her major contributions center on developing and validating novel, real-time methods for optimising mechanical ventilation in patients undergoing procedures that compromise lung mechanics—such as steep Trendelenburg positioning and capnoperitoneum. Her most cited work, "Individualised Positive End‐Expiratory Pressure During Robotic‐Assisted Radical Prostatectomy Guided by Intratidal Compliance–Volume Curve Analysis" (2025, 2 citations), introduces a dynamic approach to PEEP selection that improves dorsal lung ventilation and reduces atelectasis. This research has immediate clinical relevance, offering a practical, physiology-driven strategy to enhance intraoperative lung protection. Dr. Lozano‐Zahonero’s work is notable for bridging engineering principles with bedside anaesthesia, and her findings are increasingly cited in guidelines for personalised ventilation. Her ongoing investigations continue to shape how clinicians manage respiratory mechanics in minimally invasive surgery, making her a key voice in the evolution of precision perioperative care.
