About
Dr. Anna Sau Kuk Poon is a clinician-researcher whose work bridges anesthesiology and geriatric surgical care, with a particular focus on the perioperative management of elderly patients undergoing minimally invasive procedures. Her most cited paper, "The physiologic and anesthetic considerations in elderly patients undergoing robotic renal surgery" (2014, 13 citations), provides a critical review of the unique physiological and anesthetic challenges posed by robotic nephrectomy and partial nephrectomy in an aging population. This work highlights her contribution to understanding how age-related changes in cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal function demand tailored anesthetic strategies to ensure patient safety and optimize outcomes. By synthesizing evidence on the intersection of robotic surgical innovation and geriatric physiology, Dr. Poon has helped guide clinicians in managing complex cases where advanced technology meets the vulnerabilities of older patients. Her research underscores the importance of multidisciplinary planning in urologic oncology, and her insights remain relevant as robotic surgery becomes increasingly common. Dr. Poon’s work serves as a valuable resource for anesthesiologists, surgeons, and trainees navigating the evolving landscape of perioperative care for the elderly.
