Research

Focus

  • My research studies involved the evaluation of the use of cerebral Near Infrared Spectroscopy(cNIRS) in the cardiac intensive care unit. cNIRS is a non-invasive monitor we use to monitor cerebral blood flow in patients with congenital heart disease. My emphasis was on the utility of cNIRS in assisting in the care of our patients, particularly whether it predicts outcome both in the short and long term.
