Lila Baaklini, M.D. serves as a Clinical Instructor in Anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medical College, Cornell University, and holds dual clinical appointments as Assistant Attending Anesthesiologist at Hospital for Special Surgery and NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital in New York City, specializing in orthopedic surgical anesthesia.

Her educational background includes:

• M.D., New Jersey Medical School, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (2011)
• B.S., Massachusetts Institute of Technology (2006)

Dr. Baaklini's research centers on optimizing perioperative outcomes for joint replacement patients through evidence-based anesthesia techniques. Her work investigates regional nerve blocks, pharmacological interventions like tranexamic acid, and delirium prevention strategies, with emphasis on translating clinical trial data into practice guidelines for hip and knee arthroplasty.

Analysis of her 2018-2021 publications reveals consistent focus on comparative effectiveness of anesthesia methods in orthopedics, with high-impact contributions to consensus guidelines (ICAROS group). Her systematic reviews and randomized trials address critical gaps in bleeding management, pain control, and cognitive outcomes, reflected in significant citation counts (up to 232 for 2019 BJAs paper).
