Research: My research explores the relationships between the delivery of health care and outcomes—at both the patient and system level. In collaboration with other scholars and clinicians in the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Pharmacy, I created an interdisciplinary work group that developed appropriate and specific health outcome measures to evaluate the effectiveness of a coordinated approach in care delivery for the diagnosis and treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE). My latest research supported by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (Patient Safety Grant) focuses on the implementation and evaluation of a system-supported VTE Safety Toolkit. The VTE Safety Toolkit is comprised of diagnostic, preventative, and treatment algorithms for patients at risk for or diagnosed with VTE. The VTE Safety Toolkit will be disseminated nationally for the purpose of improving the quality and safety of care.
