Dr. Michelotti’s research focuses on patient reported outcome measures following plastic surgery and hand and upper extremity surgery procedures. Recent publications have focused on limiting opioid prescribing following surgery and reducing or eliminating post-amputation pain. Ongoing projects include a clinical trial examining the effect of nerve surgery performed concurrently with breast reconstruction, a global functional assessment with patient reported outcomes following nerve transfer surgery in amputees, and an evaluation of social functioning in patients who have undergone facial skin cancer removal and reconstruction.
