See and hear how RESPOND is working to improve the care of surgical patients.

To enhance the take-up of an intervention, it’s important to include the relevant stakeholders in it’s design. See how RESPOND is collaborating with patients and frontline staff to safely empower patients to improve failure to rescue in emergency surgery patients.

Improve team culture and dynamics, and we stand a better chance at decreasing Failure to Rescue in surgery.

It feels great to be back on a live podium for research presentations. Sincere appreciation to the CIEHF CIEHF North East England Regional Network for organizing a wonderful conference #EHF2022.

Glad to share our series demonstrating innovative use of Embolic Protection Device (EPD) for the treatment of intra operative complication of distal thromboembolism during Endovascular intervention for peripheral vascular disease. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35549941/

Overlooked opportunity! Patient/family-led escalation program can be a tool to improve patient care but only possible if supported by the healthcare providers at every level. doi.org/10.1136/bmjqs-…

Studies evaluating the impact of Lipoprotein(a)on outcomes in CABG patients are few, with heterogenous cut-offs and outcomes. Signifying that collaboration among authors with standardized definitions of relevant variables and outcomes is invaluable. doi.org/10.23736/S2724…

Sincere appreciations to the Cardiothoracic Surgery team NYU Langone Health for a 1 month elective in cardiac surgery. A team full of exemplary providers dedicated nuturing leaders of tomorrow. The month was full of positive experience and reminder of why CT surgery is the right choice.

#ACSCC24 American College of Surgeons is a true model for excellence. It was an honor to have presented our work on outcome of early vs delayed feeding after PEG tube placement at the recently concluded conference in San Francisco. Maimonides Health

Excited for this next chapter and the opportunity to continue growing in a field I’m passionate about. I’m incredibly grateful to my mentors, colleagues, friends, and family who have supported and guided me along the way. Your encouragement has meant the world to me.

Through a systematic review and meta-analysis, we demonstrated that early feeding after PEG placement is safe, aligning with the ASPEN guideline. doi.org/10.1002/jpen.2…. ASPEN jpen ASPEN SAGES is in Tampa in 2026!
