On Friday 6 March 2026 at 14:00, Henrik Lynge Hovgaard defends his PhD dissertation entitled "Qualifying Fluid Treatment in Thoracic Surgery". 

Vasoactive medications and fluid therapy are cornerstones in perioperative haemodynamic management. Yet, the optimal perioperative blood pressure and fluid volumes remain undefined and both under- and overhydration are associated with adverse postoperative outcome.

This ph.d.-project investigates how haemodynamic management can be tailored to the indivial patient and how application of one such individualised haemodynamic protocol affects patient outcome after oesophagectomy.

The summary is written by the PhD student.

The defence is public and takes place in Auditorium C114-101, Entrance C, Sign C110, Aarhus University Hospital. Please see the press release for more information.
