Dr. Ntombiyethu Biyase

Ntombiyethu Biyase is a South African clinician-researcher in anaesthesiology and critical care, with work closely associated with Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic Hospital and academic institutions in Johannesburg. Her scholarship reflects a strong commitment to improving perioperative and intensive care practices within resource-constrained public healthcare settings.

Her research focuses on postoperative analgesia, critical care pharmacotherapy, and perioperative cardiovascular considerations. Notable contributions include investigations into intrathecal morphine dosing for lower limb arthroplasty, highlighting effective pain control with attention to safety outcomes. She has also examined stress ulcer prophylaxis practices in intensive care units, drawing attention to guideline adherence and rational medicine use, as well as contributing to discussions on diastolic dysfunction and contrast use in anaesthesia.

Based on the limited publications currently available, her work demonstrates strengths in clinically grounded study design, contextual health systems analysis, and efforts to translate evidence into safer anaesthetic and critical care practice in South Africa.
