Hamdy Awad

Hamdy Awad's work focuses on anesthesia and patient safety during high-risk cardiac and aortic surgeries, particularly complications like spinal cord injury and paralysis that can occur after aortic aneurysm repair procedures. Much of the research examines techniques such as cerebrospinal fluid drainage to prevent spinal cord damage, along with case reports and reviews on complex cardiac device implantation, lung transplantation, and perioperative monitoring. The work is clinically oriented, drawing on case series, retrospective analyses, and narrative reviews from anesthesiology and cardiothoracic practice.

Publication output has fluctuated over the last decade, with a notable peak in 2023 (18 papers) followed by a decline toward 2024-2026, though the 5-year average remains around 8 papers per year.
