Lena Jideus

Lena Jideus is an Adjunct Senior Lecturer at Uppsala University's Department of Surgical Sciences (Thoracic Surgery), indicating a part-time academic role. Her research specializes in cardiac surgery outcomes, with a focus on atrial fibrillation treatments, postoperative complications, and surgical innovations. She has published extensively on topics including Cox-Maze procedures, pacemaker-related risks, stroke prevention, and thoracic surgical techniques.

Research Focus: Her work spans cardiac arrhythmia management, thoracic surgery outcomes, and evidence-based surgical protocols. Key areas include:

• Long-term effects of atrial fibrillation surgeries
• Strategies to reduce postoperative stroke and bleeding
• Innovations in minimally invasive thoracic procedures
• Registry-based analysis of surgical complications

Publications: Her recent articles (2012–2025) predominantly analyze large-scale registry data to evaluate surgical risks in cardiac patients, with recurring themes of atrial fibrillation treatment efficacy, anticoagulation challenges, and quality-of-life impacts. Methodologies emphasize real-world evidence from nationwide Nordic registries.
