Rafal Kopanczyk's work focuses on the care of critically ill patients undergoing cardiac surgery, with particular attention to extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), a technique that uses a machine to support heart and lung function in severe illness. Much of the recent work examines complications and monitoring during ECMO use in COVID-19 patients, as well as broader topics in cardiac anesthesia and critical care. This research area is well suited to students interested in clinical/translational topics at the intersection of anesthesiology, critical care medicine, and cardiac surgery.
Publication output rose sharply starting in 2020-2021, likely tied to COVID-19-related clinical work, and has since moderated to a steadier pace of a few papers per year.
