About

Rafael Gevorkyan is a urologic researcher whose work centers on optimizing perioperative care and patient outcomes in robotic surgery, with a particular focus on prostate cancer treatment. His major contributions include pioneering research on same-day discharge (SDD) pathways after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), demonstrating that these protocols can achieve comparable complication rates while reducing healthcare costs and hospital stays. His most cited work, "Assessing Decision Regret in Patients with Same-Day Discharge Pathway After Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy" (2023), has garnered 5 citations and critically evaluates patient satisfaction and psychological outcomes, addressing a key concern in outpatient surgical models. Gevorkyan’s research bridges surgical innovation and patient-centered care, helping to validate SDD as a safe, cost-effective alternative in high-volume centers. His findings support the broader adoption of outpatient RARP, influencing clinical guidelines and reducing the burden on healthcare systems. By systematically analyzing both clinical and emotional dimensions of recovery, Gevorkyan has established himself as a thoughtful contributor to evidence-based urologic practice, with his work laying groundwork for future studies on enhanced recovery pathways and shared decision-making in oncology.
