Professor John F Beltrame is the Michell Professor in Medicine at the University of Adelaide and Director of Research for the Central Adelaide Local Health Network. He has strong clinical and research interests in coronary heart disease, especially in relation to coronary vasomotor disorders, which has evolved from his postgraduate studies in Rome, Kyoto and Boston. Along with Prof Noel Bairey Merz, he co-founded and co-chairs, COVADIS (Coronary Vasomotion Disorders International Study group), which promotes the diagnosis and treatment of patients afflicted with these disorders. His specific areas of expertise include the coronary slow flow phenomenon, vasospastic angina, MINOCA (Myocardial Infarction with Non-Obstructive Coronary Arteries) and persistent angina after successful stenting (Post-PCI Angina). He is particularly interested in patient-related outcomes and developed the Coronary Angiogram Database of South Australia (CADOSA) to investigate the impact of these conditions upon patients.
