Vascular Research

St. Boniface Hospital Research’s Vascular Research program, led by Dr. Randy Guzman, involves collaboration with research groups locally, nationally and internationally, and has facilitated Manitoban’s access to novel therapeutic devices and drugs to treat vascular disease. With the increased importance of outcome measures in health care, all programs need to have a comprehensive quality management system in place. Dr. Guzman is developing a system that includes the functional health status of patients, allowing for improvement and promotion of optimal patient care, with a vision to develop a Vascular Centre of Excellence and benchmark practices at St. Boniface Hospital with best practices across the country.
