I chose emergency medicine in 1989 because I was (and still am) interested in everything to do with medicine. My research interest centers on the intersection of thrombosis and emergency care. But this is a very large intersection, which allows me a wide lattitude of study. The following are my areas of active interest:
-Recognizing who has PE and who does not
-Using empathy and facial affect to improve diagnostic hypothesis generation
-Creating a rational approach to test for PE
-Deciding which patients with PE and DVT can be treated at home, and implementing protocols to do this
-Recognizing and treating acute pulmonary hypertension from PE
-Understanding how cyclic guanosine monophosphate can treat acute PE and prevent progression of PE to CTED and CTEPH
-Performing large clinical trials to learn whether or not fibrinolytics can provide a net benefit to patients with PE
-Creation of controllable methods to proteolyse fibrin
