Research Interests:

Innovative methods to measure response to therapy in intensive care units
1. Additional information obtained with biologic markers of inflammation in addition to traditional physiologic measures

Intensive Care Unit Benchmarking and Outcomes:
1. Influence of referral and admission source on ICU outcomes.
2. Evaluation of outcomes and costs associated with unplanned readmissions to the ICU.
3. Utility of daily risk-adjusted prognostic scores and ICU outcomes
4. Evaluating the validity of physician ‘report-cards’ in the ICU

The ARDS Clinical Trials Network and ALI SCORE in Acute Lung Injury
1. Effect of cumulative fluid balance and outcome in ALI/ARDS
2. ARDS natural history
3. ARDS prognostic scores

Study Design in Anesthesiology and Critical Care
1. Evaluating the quality of published randomized trials in anesthesiology
