Christopher W. Mastropietro conducts clinical research in pediatric cardiac intensive care, focusing on how infants and children with congenital (present-at-birth) heart defects are treated and recover after cardiac surgery. His work examines surgical and support techniques such as cardiopulmonary bypass, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (a heart-lung support machine), and ductal stents, as well as ways to prevent complications like cardiac arrest, kidney injury, and breathing-tube failure. He also studies the well-being of both critically ill infants and the clinicians who care for them.
