Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Martha Estrada's research examines factors influencing transplant access and outcomes, with a particular focus on liver, kidney, and other organ transplantations. Her work investigates how socioeconomic status, patient characteristics, and hospital operational factors impact waitlist access and transplantation rates. Recent studies by Estrada have explored the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on non-elective surgical admissions at safety-net hospitals and have analyzed disparities in liver transplant referrals and outcomes for women, irrespective of socioeconomic factors. Her research also extends to surgical interventions, such as sleeve gastrectomy and bariatric Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, and their implications for transplant eligibility and metabolic health. Estrada has published on the differential transplantation rates and outcomes based on center volume during weekends and holidays, and has investigated conditions arising post-bariatric surgery.
