    Collapse Overview 
    Collapse overview
    Dr. Bakaeen and his team at MEDVAMC have a very active clinical research program. This program builds on a large and diverse surgical volume at one of the busiest and most successful VA cardiothoracic programs in the nation. The use of electronic medical records in the VA system and having access to rigorous clinical and administrative databases have facilitated the team’s research efforts. Specific areas of clinical research include on- vs. off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and the impact of age, obesity, and peripheral vascular disease on CABG and valve surgery outcomes. In addition, the team conducts ongoing research on aortic stenosis and aortic aneurysm treatment options and outcomes. Research in surgical education and the impact of resident training on surgical morbidity and mortality are also important components of Dr. Bakaeen’s research portfolio. Dr. Bakaeen is actively involved with several multicenter clinical trials being conducted in the VA system, including studies of radial artery grafts and antiplatelet therapy in CABG patients.

    PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
