CURRENT ROLE
Associate Professor of Neurology and Ophthalmology
Staff Neurologist at Duke Comprehensive Stroke Center
Stroke physician and clinical researcher with expertise in etiological determination of cerebral stroke and retinal vascular disease.
TRAINING
I did my medical training at University College Dublin in Dublin, Ireland. I then undertook residency in neurology followed by a fellowship in vascular neurology at Yale-New Haven Hospital. I was on the faculty at Brown/Rhode Island Hospital for 3 years before joining Duke in July 2020.
CURRENT WORK
My area of particular interest is central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), a form of ischemic stroke affecting the eye. The tragedy of sudden, permanent blindness due to this condition is often compounded by delayed presentations to medical attention and delayed or incomplete diagnostic workup as it is not universally accepted as a form of stroke. My central research themes include thrombolysis for CRAO and the interplay of cardioembolic disease and CRAO. The prevailing dogma in current practice is that CRAO is caused in the vast majority of cases by stenosis-causing carotid plaque, However, my work has suggested that patients with CRAO may actually be a vulnerable population in whom an appropriate diagnostic workup is likely to uncover a cardiac arrythmia or structural lesion that places them at very high risk of recurrent embolic events, and whose needs are not being met by current medical practice. My work has appeared in Stroke, Annals of Neurology, British Medical Journal, Neurology, Translational Stroke Research and Circulation: Arrythmia and Electrophysiology. I also have an interest in the use of large datasets for stroke research and serve as the clinical lead for the Get With The Guidelines-Stroke Program data analysis core at the Duke Clinical Research Institute. Here at Duke, we have set up a center of excellence for the treatment of CRAO which include an acute treatment pathway and a multidisciplinary outpatient clinic for patients with retinal vascular disease.”

1205-1320 Hyperbaric Treatment for Femoral Aseptic Bone Necrosis: Enrico Camporesi, MD
Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (AVNFH) is a debilitating and progressively disabling condition with partially understood, wide-ranging etiology and pathogenesis. Pathology is chiefly caused by a reduced vascularization of a terminal vascular bed, such as the one perfusing the femoral head, or similar vascular districts, such as the femoral condyles, humeral head, and other bony structures. Hypoxic conditions mediate the condition and can improve with multiple hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) treatments.

Sandra will be talking about long covid and she will be reviewing the literature on hyperbaric oxygen and its use in long covid patients.
