David Fehr

David Fehr is an Associate Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine, specializing in cardiac and vascular anesthesia. His research spans pharmacological mechanisms, physiological responses, and advanced imaging techniques in critical care settings.

Research Interests

• Calcium signaling in pulmonary artery vasoconstriction
• Intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography for congenital heart disease
• Renal ATP and pH dynamics post-ischemia
• Perioperative risk assessment for cardiovascular complications
• Comparative physiology in conscious animal models

Publication Trends

David Fehr's research output (1981-2003) demonstrates sustained focus on anesthetic effects in cardiovascular physiology. Key themes include pharmacological agents like halothane, energy metabolism (ATP-MgCl2), and real-time monitoring techniques in surgical contexts. His work bridges clinical applications (e.g., neonatal cardiac surgery) with fundamental physiological mechanisms.

Collaborations

He has collaborated extensively with experts in cardiothoracic anesthesia, veterinary medicine, and surgical physiology, as evidenced by publications in specialized journals like Journal of Applied Physiology and Pediatric Cardiology.
