Through collaborations with cardiac surgery and cardiac anesthesia we aim to optimize care delivery before, during and after interventional procedures for children with congenital heart disease and cardiac transplant recipients. We are currently evaluating the clinical impact of a new high resolution intravascular imaging technique called ‘Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)’. We have successfully established an International Pediatric OCT Registry and the Children’s Heart Centre serves as the lead centre, and hosts both the core imaging laboratory and data coordinating centre for evaluating this exciting new imaging modality in children and adolescents.
I am interested in the childhood origins of non-congenital cardiovascular disease. We previously found that at-risk children – for example, individuals with obesity or congenital heart disease – have significant cardiovascular changes already in childhood, such as aortic stiffness and elevated blood pressure. We are presently conducting interventional and longitudinal observational studies to evaluate the impact of physical activity and exercise on cardiovascular health in these children.
Vascular health is also a concern in children who have had Kawasaki disease. I am actively involved in evaluating the coronary artery changes in children with Kawasaki disease. I serve as the site PI for a North American collaboration evaluating the long-term outcomes of coronary aneurysms in children with KD.
Physical activity is critical to optimize long-term cardiovascular health in children with congenital and non-congenital heart disease. We use state-of-the-art measurement tools and new technologies, such as commercial activity trackers, to better understand and promote physical activity levels in our patients. My research in this area also investigates perceived barriers and facilitators for physical activity in these children and their parents.

Every day, our researchers work towards breakthroughs to transform the lives of kids in BC and around the world. Learn about our latest innovations and advancements in child health.
In our February Heart Month story about BC Children's Hospital pediatric cardiologist and researcher Dr. Kevin Harris, he shared with us how a newborn baby's life was saved because of advances in research and science. This is that baby's story.
February is Heart Month. We talked to Dr. Kevin Harris, BC Children’s Hospital pediatric cardiologist and researcher, about his new role as editor-in-chief of a newly launched pediatric cardiology journal. He also shares how research was instrumental in a team intervention that saved a baby’s life.
Not only do parents of children with Type 1 diabetes need to watch their child’s blood sugar levels, they also need to pay attention to their kid’s blood pressure.
At BC Children’s, we are making discoveries that save lives and transform health care for children in our province and around the world. Our research portfolio includes basic, clinical, population, and public health research.
