Overview

As part of an inter-disciplinary team of engineers, computer scientists, and health care providers, I am involved in a wide range of projects focusing on the development and application of new technology, primarily in the pediatric anesthesia and intensive care setting. My main goal is to extract clinically-useful information from vital signs and other clinical data, and to transform these data into information for better, more timely, and more efficient decision-making by clinicians.

Research

Sepsis modeling and outcome prediction
Severe sepsis and septic shock are associated with a high burden of morbidity and mortality among critically ill children. Through improvements in supportive care, secular trends reveal a gradual decline in mortality. In collaboration with our critical care colleagues, our goal is to use a large North-American registry cohort to validate and compare the performance of existing risk score, identify new combinations of risk factors, and to develop novel outcome prediction tools.

TrustSphere - a Trusted, Secure and Privacy-respecting Healthcare Environment Realized for Everyone
This project aims to empower Canadians through the creation of a scalable and trustworthy health access platform that enables each person to utilize a strong digital identity to easily view, share and manage their own health data in a private, secure and informed manner — easy for patients and trustworthy for providers. see https://www.bcchr.ca/TrustSphere

Perioperative opioid usage quality improvement
We are building a post-surgery monitoring system that will collect patient data and provide doctors with the information they need to better manage the prescription and use of opioids. See https://www.digitalsupercluster.ca/projects/reducing-opioid-use-for-pai…
