About

Raísha Costa Martins has established herself as a leading voice in perioperative nursing, with a particular focus on the evolving role of nurses in robotic-assisted surgeries. Her most cited work, "Nursing performance in robotic surgeries: integrative review" (2019, 54 citations), systematically mapped the scientific literature to define the nurse's responsibilities across the three perioperative periods—preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative—in the context of robotic procedures. This seminal review has become a foundational reference for practitioners and researchers seeking to standardize nursing care in minimally invasive surgical environments. Beyond this flagship study, Martins has contributed to advancing evidence-based practice in surgical nursing, emphasizing the critical intersection of technology and patient-centered care. Her work has been instrumental in highlighting how robotic surgery demands specialized nursing competencies, from equipment management to intraoperative patient monitoring. With a growing citation impact that underscores the relevance of her research, Martins continues to shape the discourse on nursing workforce preparation for high-tech surgical settings. Her scholarship not only informs clinical protocols but also inspires future research into the optimization of nursing roles in the rapidly evolving landscape of robotic surgery.
