Specializations

Coronary artery disease and PCI

The investigator concentrates on coronary artery disease and outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention. Research also addresses management of cardiogenic shock following acute myocardial infarction.

  • Percutaneous coronary intervention
  • Coronary artery disease
  • Cardiogenic shock after myocardial infarction
  • Stable and unstable coronary syndromes

Emphasis is placed on reducing ischemic events and enhancing post‑procedural recovery.

Ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke

Work includes patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large‑vessel occlusion and those receiving direct oral anticoagulants. The scope also covers safety of reperfusion in intracerebral haemorrhage.

  • Acute ischemic stroke
  • Large vessel occlusion
  • Direct oral anticoagulants
  • Intracerebral haemorrhage
  • Thrombolysis strategies

Investigations address safety of reperfusion therapies in anticoagulated patients.

Antithrombotic therapy and anticoagulation

Focus is on optimizing treatment for atrial fibrillation and balancing bleeding risk with P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy. Comparative studies evaluate dual antiplatelet therapy and management of Factor Xa inhibitors.

  • Atrial fibrillation
  • P2Y12 inhibitor monotherapy
  • Dual antiplatelet therapy
  • Factor Xa inhibitor management
  • Bleeding risk reduction

Targeted at optimizing net clinical benefit in high‑risk cardiovascular patients.

Infectious disease and HPV

Projects include a platform for community‑acquired pneumonia and broader respiratory tract infection research. Additional work evaluates clearance of high‑risk human papillomavirus infections.

  • Community‑acquired pneumonia
  • Respiratory tract infection
  • High‑risk human papillomavirus
  • Genital HPV infection

Integrates antiviral and anti‑inflammatory approaches.

Critical care neurology

The investigator studies outcomes after cardiac arrest and management of status epilepticus in comatose patients. Continuous electroencephalographic monitoring is a key component of these studies.

  • Cardiac arrest
  • Status epilepticus
  • Comatose patients
  • Electroencephalographic monitoring

Aims to improve neurologic outcomes after resuscitation.
