In this Healio video exclusive, Neena S. Abraham, MD, MSc (Epi), FACG, of the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix, discusses her 25 years of research in cardiogastroenterology and how she used telemedicine to continue patient care during the pandemic.
“We didn’t miss a beat during the pandemic, and we were able to be productive both in clinical care and in research,” Abraham said.
Abraham won Healio’s 2021 Clinical Innovation Award, one of several Disruptive Innovator awards given to physicians who are pushing the status quo toward the betterment of gastroenterology and liver diseases. She was honored for her work in cardiogastroenterology, a specialty she embraced after noticing the link between cardiac treatments and gastrointestinal bleeding.
During the pandemic, Abraham worked with the ACG and the Canadian Association of Gastroenterology to develop recommendations for the management of anticoagulants and antiplatelets during acute gastrointestinal bleeding and the periendoscopic period. The guidelines were recently published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology.
