About
Harish Ramakrishna is a leading figure in cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia, with a research focus that spans the perioperative management of complex cardiac surgeries, including robotic and off-pump procedures, as well as the anesthetic challenges of pheochromocytoma resection. His most cited work, a 2015 paper on pheochromocytoma resection (98 citations), has become a cornerstone for clinicians navigating the hemodynamic instability and catecholamine surges associated with these tumors. He has also made significant contributions to understanding atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery, with a 2015 clinical update (66 citations) that synthesizes mechanisms and prophylactic strategies. Ramakrishna is at the forefront of robotic cardiac surgery, authoring a two-part series (2019) on anesthetic considerations for totally endoscopic robotic cardiac surgery (TERCS) and robotic coronary artery bypass grafting, which together have garnered 17 citations. His research extends to practical clinical questions, such as the effect of fentanyl ampule size on opioid dosing (10 citations), demonstrating a commitment to improving patient safety. With over 197 citations across his most-cited works, Ramakrishna’s expertise is widely recognized, and his annual reviews of cardiothoracic anesthesia highlights (2019) further cement his role as a key commentator in the field.
