Characterizing the Physiology of Circulatory Arrest in Humans
Dr. Mypinder Sekhon presents a multi-pronged approach for the physiology of the circulatory arrest in humans, to understand the processes that underpin death determination and cerebral ischemia.
Personalizing the Pressure Reactivity Index for Quantifying Cerebral Autoregulation in Neurocritical Care
Jennifer Briggs presents a personalized approach to the Pressure Reactivity Index (PRx) for quantifying cerebral autoregulation. Her work improves the accuracy and reliability of PRx by accounting for patient-specific variability and algorithmic sensitivity, advancing clinical decision-making in neurocritical care.
Interviews & Podcasts
Discussions with clinicians and researchers on CA monitoring, its clinical interpretation, and how it is being integrated into modern neurocritical care practice.
