Research

I am a researcher in Quality Measurement and Outcomes. My primary research focuses on evaluation of outcomes of care for patients with cardiovascular conditions including:
- Patient-reported Outcome measures as indicators of quality
- Evaluating the impact of unmeasured confounders on quality measures for acute myocardial infarction and heart failure.
- Understanding outcomes of in-hospital cardiac arrest
- Understanding outcomes for patients with acute myocardial infarction and cardiogenic shock

URMC partners with Press Ganey, to survey our patients about all aspects of their care experience. We are now putting this pertinent information at your fingertips by displaying star ratings for our providers along with anonymous patient comments on our website.
