The Pavlek Lab studies cardiac development in extremely preterm infants to better understand the impact of perinatal factors to improve clinical management and outcomes. The team studies heart development using robust clinical information, data from serial echocardiograms, and biomarker analysis. Lab Staff
Leeann Pavlek, MD, MS Principal Investigator Leeann.Pavlek@NationwideChildrens.org Dr. Pavlek is a principal investigator in the Center for Perinatal Research at the Abigail Wexner Research Institute. She is also an attending Neonatologist at Nationwide Children’s and an assistant professor of Pediatrics at The Ohio State University College of Medicine. Her research interests include cardiac development in premature infants, the impact of maternal conditions such as pre-eclampsia on heart structure and function in the newborn and improving the management and outcomes of extremely premature infants.
