Clinical Interests
Transesophageal echocardiography, anesthesia for major aortic surgery, postoperative critical care, acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery

Research Interests
My overall goal is to elucidate mechanisms of and risk factors for perioperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing heart surgery with emphasis the role of early recovery of kidney function. A special area of interest is the phenomenon of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. We have successfully developed an algorithm to help simplify the detection of diastolic dysfunction using echocardiography during heart surgery. A future goal is to explore interventions that help prevent or reduce the severity of diastolic dysfunction postoperatively. I am also keenly involved in transesophageal echocardiography in thoracic endovascular surgery.
