About
Fredrik Sandin is a prominent researcher in surgical outcomes and health services research, with a particular focus on robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). His key contributions lie in understanding how surgical volume—both at the individual surgeon and hospital level—affects patient outcomes in minimally invasive prostate cancer surgery. In his landmark 2021 nationwide, population-based study, Sandin demonstrated that higher surgical volume is significantly associated with improved short-term peri-operative outcomes, including reduced complication rates and shorter hospital stays. This work, which has garnered 24 citations, provides critical evidence for centralizing complex robotic surgeries to high-volume centers. Sandin’s research has direct implications for healthcare policy, surgical training, and patient referral patterns. By leveraging comprehensive national registry data, he offers robust, real-world insights that help shape best practices in urologic oncology. His findings are essential reading for clinicians, health administrators, and researchers aiming to optimize surgical care delivery and improve patient safety in robotic surgery.
