Dr. Kerryn Davidson

Kerryn Davidson is a clinician-researcher in anaesthesiology whose work engages complex perioperative management and neurological monitoring. Publications in leading South African medical journals reflect involvement in both contemporary case-based scholarship and foundational neurophysiological research, with a focus on improving patient safety and clinical decision-making in specialised settings.

Recent work explores anaesthetic considerations in spondylo-ocular syndrome, a rare genetic disorder with multisystem involvement. This contribution highlights perioperative risk assessment, multidisciplinary coordination, and tailored anaesthetic strategies for fragile paediatric patients, advancing awareness of a condition with limited prior guidance for anaesthetists.

Earlier research examined the use of somatosensory evoked potentials to quantify neurological recovery during treatment of cerebral vasospasm with nimodipine. By linking electrophysiological monitoring to clinical improvement, this work underscored the value of objective neuro-monitoring tools. The analysis is based on limited available publications at the moment.
