Practice Details
The Cardiac Anesthesia Division is actively recruiting new members to support a growing program. The Division consists of 8 members. The members provide seamless coverage with pre-operative consultation, anesthesia for cardiac surgery and post-operative care in the Cardiac Surgery ICU. The Cardiac Surgery ICU is a 6 bed unit with capacity to expand to 8 beds. Our cardiac surgery volume is 600 cases per year with plans to increase significantly due to rapidly growing patient demand. The scope covers the entire spectrum of cardiac surgery, excluding minimally invasive procedures and transplant. We also provide short‑term mechanical support (V‑A ECMO, V‑V ECMO, VAD). Additionally, the division supports the TAVI program with an annual volume of 150 cases. We also provide consultation and TEE support to our general anesthesia colleagues for patients with complex non‑cardiac surgery. When fully staffed, we aim for a 50/50 split between cardiac anesthesia and general anesthesia. In addition to appointment to the Dept. of Anesthesia, members of the Cardiac Anesthesia Division receive an adjunct appointment to the Dept. of Cardiac Sciences.
