CLINICAL INTERESTS
Intensive care:
My clinical expertise is in the comprehensive delivery of support to patients requiring general intensive care and cardiac intensive care.
My clinical workload comprises the breadth of general intensive care medicine, as well as the specialist areas of liver failure and transplantation, upper GI and bariatric surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, haematology and oncology.
This includes the treatment of sepsis, shock/cardiovascular support, respiratory failure and multiple organ failure.
I have special interests in intravenous fluid therapy and electrolyte management, point-of-care ultrasound, and the ethics of care escalation, prognostication and decision-making.
Anaesthesia:
My clinical expertise in anaesthesia comprises all areas of general surgery, as well as the specialist areas of thoracic surgery, hepatobiliary surgery, upper GI and bariatric surgery.
This includes cardiovascular management, intravenous fluid therapy, vascular access, awareness under general anaesthesia, preoperative assessment, airway management and postoperative complications.
Sepsis:
As a consultant in Intensive Care and Anaesthesia, I have been managing sepsis for over 20 years.
My interests in sepsis range across the intensive care environment, the hospital ward environment and the operating theatre, and include early resuscitation, system-wide quality management and the education of all frontline healthcare providers in optimal management.
Intravenous fluid therapy:
Careful administration of intravenous fluids improves patient outcomes, and injudicious use of intravenous fluids exposes patients to the risk of harm.
I have delivered educational lectures at a local and national level (Intensive Care Society State of the Art conference, Acute and General Medicine conference) on how to avoid harm when prescribing intravenous fluids.
