Research Interests
Evidence based medicine (EBM) is an approach to the teaching and practice of medicine which seeks to optimize patient outcomes and quality of life by integrating patient centered, outcomes-based clinical research with clinical expertise and patient values. EBM is an explicit, decision-making process characterized by the use of best evidence gleaned from clinical and epidemiological research. My research focus involves applying the tools of evidence-based medicine to pediatric anesthesia and pediatric critical care medicine.
Matriculation in the Duke University Masters of Health Science degree program has afforded me opportunities to become involved in the design, implementation and analysis of multi-center clinical trials in children. I am active in a number of therapeutic areas, which include sedative/analgesic drugs, cardiovascular agents, and novel therapies for sepsis and multiple organ system failure. I have participated in phase II and III multicenter clinical trials in children and have also written protocols and served on protocol development committees. I have been awarded both NIH and pharmaceutical industry funding.
This faculty member has no reported relationships with industry.
