Specializations

Acute Coronary Syndromes

Focused on the rapid assessment and treatment of ST‑elevation myocardial infarction and non‑ST‑elevation myocardial infarction in emergency settings.

  • Early reperfusion strategies
  • Adjunctive anti‑inflammatory therapy
  • Risk stratification for major adverse cardiovascular events

Collaborates with Rigshospitalet to integrate cardiology expertise into multidisciplinary acute care pathways.

Heart Failure and Cardiomyopathy

Investigates therapeutic approaches for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and symptomatic hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, emphasizing disease‑modifying interventions.

  • Novel neuro‑hormonal modulators
  • Device‑based cardiac support
  • Biomarker‑guided treatment optimization

Leverages the Heart Center’s infrastructure to conduct longitudinal outcome studies.

Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease Prevention

Targets primary and secondary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease through lipid management and anti‑platelet strategies.

  • Intensive statin and PCSK9‑inhibitor therapy
  • Rivaroxaban‑based plaque stabilization
  • High‑risk patient identification using imaging biomarkers

Research conducted in partnership with national cardiovascular registries.

Cardiac Arrhythmias

Dedicated to the management of atrial fibrillation and ventricular arrhythmias in patients with structural heart disease.

  • Catheter ablation outcomes
  • Anticoagulation optimization in atrial fibrillation
  • Implantable cardioverter‑defibrillator surveillance

Integrates electrophysiology services within the Heart Center’s clinical workflow.

Cardiovascular Peri‑operative Care

Explores strategies to reduce morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, including coronary artery bypass grafting and valve replacement.

  • Hemodynamic management during cardiopulmonary bypass
  • Post‑operative pain and opioid stewardship
  • Early extubation protocols

Data collection coordinated across the two Rigshospitalet sites.
