Tina Fransgård

Tina Fransgård serves as a Clinical Associate Professor in the Department of Clinical Medicine at the University of Copenhagen's Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences. Her clinical and research work is based at Rigshospitalet (Copenhagen University Hospital) in Copenhagen, Denmark, where she focuses on surgical care for gastrointestinal diseases and perioperative optimization.

Her primary research areas include colorectal surgery, perioperative medicine, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). She specializes in optimizing pain management protocols, reducing opioid dependency, implementing disease-specific enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pathways, and managing metabolic complications in colon cancer surgery. Her work bridges clinical practice with evidence-based interventions to improve surgical outcomes.

Analysis of her 2024-2025 publications reveals a consistent focus on observational cohort studies and randomized trials targeting inflammatory bowel disease and colorectal cancer surgery. Her research demonstrates strong emphasis on practical perioperative interventions including epidural anesthesia optimization, hyperglycemia management, and protocol standardization, with publications appearing in specialized journals like Techniques in Coloproctology and Diseases of the Colon and Rectum.
