The goal of my research is to optimize treatment for critically ill children presenting to the pediatric emergency department. One of my research interests is in the area of sepsis, a medical emergency caused by a severe infection. Children presenting with serious infection to the emergency department need early recognition and targeted management. Fluid therapy is the initial treatment of sepsis and my current work looks at which fluid type is the most effective and safest to use in children.
