OverviewAI-generated summary

Lexie Vaughn's research investigates non-invasive methods for assessing cardiovascular and respiratory function. Her work has focused on non-invasive venous waveform analysis (NIVA) as a tool to correlate with pulmonary capillary wedge pressure in patients with heart failure, with the potential to predict hospital readmissions. Vaughn has also explored NIVA's utility in assessing respiratory distress in patients with COVID-19 and in detecting acute blood loss. Her studies include the development and evaluation of animal models, such as a porcine model of acute volume overload, to further understand physiological responses. Additionally, her research has examined strategies for maintaining surgical volume during the COVID-19 pandemic through a mixed-methods approach.
