Interesting cocktail of sevo, remi, and intralipid to improve function of DCD hearts? Very cool study in Anesthesiology

Great to see these results! Important for CTICU providers.

So proud of the CCM group we have built UVA Anesthesiology! This is an incredibly skilled and caring group working in cardiac, neuro, and SICU. Great clinicians, educators, and researchers.

We are fortunate to have an incredible group of CRNAs UVA Anesthesiology! Enjoy working in partnership with them and they do such outstanding work.

I have been trying all year to attract this incredible bird! Finally I got a visit.
