About

Shagun Bhatia Shah is an anesthesiologist whose research focuses on the perioperative management of patients undergoing robotic and oncologic surgeries, with a particular emphasis on breast cancer and thyroid procedures. Her work addresses critical safety challenges in modern surgical anesthesia, including the prevention of venous thromboembolism (VTE) during robotic surgery—a field where her 2015 review on prophylaxis remains a key reference (11 citations). Shah’s 2018 paper on recent trends in anesthesia and analgesia for breast cancer surgery (12 citations) synthesizes evolving techniques to optimize pain control and recovery, reflecting her commitment to evidence-based, patient-centered care. She has also contributed to the ergonomics of robotic surgery (2017, 5 citations) and pioneered the use of electromyographic tubes for nerve monitoring during robotic thyroidectomy (2021, 2 citations), offering practical “clinical pearls” to enhance safety. With a cumulative citation count of 30 across her most-cited works, Shah’s research bridges the gap between technological innovation and clinical anesthesia, providing actionable insights for surgeons and anesthesiologists alike. Her work underscores the importance of tailored prophylaxis and positioning strategies in high-risk robotic procedures.
