Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Amy M McKinney"
- Amy M McKinney's recent research primarily focuses on understanding the neurophysiological mechanisms influencing cognitive function and consciousness in the context of surgery and anesthesia, utilizing advanced techniques such as electroencephalography (EEG) and neuroimaging.
- Significant findings include the identification of EEG biomarkers and cerebral oximetry indicators that correlate with postoperative cognitive outcomes, as well as insights into the neural dynamics that differentiate the induction and recovery of consciousness during anesthesia.
- McKinney's work also explores innovative applications of telehealth in preoperative assessments for high-risk obstetric patients, as well as the feasibility of cognitive prehabilitation for older surgical patients to enhance recovery outcomes, demonstrating her commitment to improving patient care in perioperative settings.
