Professor of Medicine

Research Interests

We are continuing to explore aspects of the differential risks, pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical outcomes of different population subgroups; the parameters involved include clinical descriptors (rhythm disturbances, chamber enlargement, extent of ischema), laboratory (CK, hemograms, etc.) and basic physilogy (flow mechanisms, osmotic changes, etc.). In addition, we are continuing to explore cardiovascular manifestations and pathophysilogy in sickle cell anemia.

Clinical Interests

Myocardial ischema,pathophysiologic mechanisms and clinical parameters
Cardiac arrhythmias-clinical mechanisms and management
Cardivascular manifestations of sickle cell anemia
Noninvasive proceedures for cardiovascular diagnosis
High blood pressure-clinical management
Psyco-social and socioeconomic factors in cardiac illness
