Ajit Nagra, MD

Assistant Professor of Anesthesiology and Critical Care

Saint Louis University (SLU)

My clinical and research interests center on liver transplant anesthesia, with a focus on optimizing hemodynamic management, transfusion strategies, and perioperative outcomes for complex transplant patients. I am equally dedicated to advancing patient safety, leading initiatives that address systems-based practice, perioperative risk reduction, and event analysis to foster a culture of safety in anesthesia. Additionally, my work in clinical anesthesia explores ways to enhance the delivery of high-quality, evidence-based care across diverse surgical populations. Through these efforts, I aim to integrate innovation, education, and multidisciplinary collaboration to improve outcomes and elevate standards of care in anesthesiology.
