Keywords: massive blood loss, blood conservation, clinical outcomes, perioperative blood loss
My research is primarily focused on improving the management and outcomes of patients with excessive perioperative blood loss. Other areas of interest are perioperative blood conservation, benefits and harmful effects of blood products, and identification of physiological indications for blood transfusion.
The clinical dilemma of managing patients who are on dual antiplatelet therapy and require major non-cardiac surgery.
