Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Charles Napolitano's research has investigated the effects of intravenous anesthetics on cardiac electrophysiology, including atrial wavelength and atrioventricular nodal conduction in guinea pig models. He has also examined the ionic basis of anesthetic effects on ventricular repolarization. His work includes a pilot program on virtual resident education during the COVID-19 pandemic using Zoom for objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs).

Additional research interests include the diagnosis of critical cardiac conditions using transesophageal echocardiography, such as in cases of atrioventricular valve rupture following blunt chest trauma. Napolitano has also studied risk factors and outcomes associated with protein-calorie malnutrition in chronic heart failure patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery. His scholarly contributions are reflected in an h-index of 4 and 106 total citations across 8 publications.
