See relevant papers on the Publications page.

Dissemination and uptake of clinical information

Where people look for information about critical illness, what they find, and whether attention has anything to do with uptake. Search-engine and Wikipedia data on sepsis; altmetrics against bibliometrics; nudge interventions and ventilator compliance; who uses free educational apps, by country income.

Critical care organization and workforce

How critical care services are staffed, designed, and sustained: the national practice survey of anesthesiology intensivists, the subspecialty sustainability consensus, the 2024 ICU design guidelines, and the SCAC benchmarking work on staffing and financial models.

Airway management and mechanical ventilation

The physiologically difficult airway: a review, an international Delphi consensus, a meta-analysis of induction agents, and the argument about video laryngoscopy.

Machine learning on clinical data

Whether general-purpose language models can read ICU notes the way clinicians do; annotated datasets to test that; offline reinforcement learning on ECMO management; time-series foundation models on physiologic signals. Exploratory, and none of it is deployed at the bedside.
