Summary

  • Dr. Juan Li is a board-certified anesthesiologist with fellowship training in cardiothoracic anesthesia at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), where she also completed her residency.

She holds certifications in both Advanced PTEeXAM and the ASA Diagnostic POCUS Certificate.

    Her professional interests include intraoperative echocardiography, structural heart interventions, and perioperative risk stratification. She has authored peer-reviewed publications on topics such as GLP-1 agonists, valvular heart disease, and device management. In addition to her clinical work, she contributes actively to OpenAnesthesia, the Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation (APSF), and the Chinese American Society of Anesthesiologists (CASA) Bulletin, and currently serves as social media editor for the Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia (JCVA).

    Nationally, she is involved with the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA) Newsletter Subcommittee and is a question contributor for the ASA’s Summaries of Emerging Evidence.
