Title: EMS quality metrics and social determinants of health
Description: My projects involve the prehospital care of trauma patients and the role that social determinants of health play in the quality of prehospital care. I am interested in using existing metrics and establishing novel metrics to better define "high-quality care" in the prehospital setting and inform best practices.

Title: Acute Limb Ischemia: A Two Pronged Approach
Acute Limb Ischemia remains a morbid and deadly diagnosis, with a 1-year amputation free survival rate of 50-60%. Postoperative medication regimen consists of long term anticoagulation in patients with embolic disease, but is poorly defined in patients with acute on chronic disease. In the era of personalized medicine, novel strategies are emerging to characterize bleeding and clotting risks, such as TEG. In our proposed study, we hope to prospectively use TEG to characterize risk of thrombotic outcomes.

Our lab focuses on applying engineering to advanced cardiopulmonary failure. I plan to discuss the results of testing our novel Pulmonary Assist System in sheep and new approaches for artificial surface-induced coagulation
Our projects focus on identifying specfic Acute Care Surgery patients and resources and ensuring they align. I plan to discuss and wrap up our work on the volume-outcome relationship in EMS for severely injured patients, discuss access to advanced emergency general surgery services in the context of the new EGS-VP program, and the relationship between timing and mortality for emergent EGS procedures.
