Marlene Fischer

Marlene Fischer is a Clinical Associate Professor at the Clinic for Intensive Care Medicine within the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf. Her work bridges Critical Care Medicine, Anesthesiology, and Neurology, focusing on postoperative outcomes, neurocognitive recovery, and critical illness complications.

Research Interests:

• Neurocritical care and cerebrovascular autoregulation
• Machine learning applications in ICU data
• Postoperative recovery metrics (QoR-15GE, QoR-PACU2)
• Impact of hyperoxia and carbon dioxide fluctuations in critical care
• COVID-19-related vascular and neurocognitive outcomes

Publications Trends: Her recent work explores the intersection of respiratory medicine, neurology, and machine learning, with a focus on ARDS, TBI, and ECMO patients. She investigates diagnostic accuracy (e.g., Aspergillus antigen vs. PCR), hemodynamic management, and post-surgical cognitive changes.

Collaborations: Fischer collaborates extensively with researchers at UKE, notably with Clinic for Intensive Care Medicine colleagues like Kluge, Grensemann, and Zöllner. She contributes to the Neuro-Immune Network Hamburg and participates in clinical trials and retrospective analyses.
