Dr. Muhlestein has contributed to cardiovascular research over a broad area, including percutaneous coronary intervention, therapy of acute myocardial infarction and unstable angina, trials in congestive heart failure, and, currently, research on genetic polymorphisms and other new risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including arrhythmias.He is an author or co-author on more than 200 original or invited publications and 200 abstracts.
Together with Dr. Jeffrey Anderson, he has established a large DNA and plasma bank (over 13,000 patients) for patients with cardiac catheterization data and long-term follow-up. Together, they have also established research and clinical collaborations with China (e.g., First Affiliate Hospitals of Xi’an Jiaotong University Medical College), extending back over 20 years. Current collaborations include the comparative contributions of genetic polymorphisms to cardiovascular disease in Han Chinese compared with European-American Caucasians. He also collaborates on cardiac electrophysiology of genetically related rhythm disorders with Dr. Li Zhang at LDSHospital.
Dr. Muhlestein is Director of Cardiology Research atLDSHospital and Professor of Internal Medicine (with tenure) at theUniversity of Utah.He regularly teaches medical and pre-medical students, housestaff, cardiology fellows, and physicians and has a busy cardiology clinical practice.
