The Division of Critical Care Medicine is a leading presence in the field of pediatric critical care research. Our division is home to five NIH-funded researchers (Dr. Mark Hall, Dr. Christopher Montgomery, Dr. Nicole O’Brien, Dr. Andrew Yates, and Dr. Jennifer Muszynski). Nationwide Children’s Hospital is one of only eight sites in the country to participate in the current cycle of the nation’s only NIH-funded research network for critical ill children, the Collaborative Pediatric Critical Care Research Network (CPCCRN). In addition, our faculty members are active participants in the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators Network (PALISI), the country’s largest pediatric critical care research network. The diverse research interests of our faculty include immunology of critical illness, pediatric neurocritical care, transfusion science, Staphylococcus aureus microbiology, cardiac critical care, anesthesiology, medical education, comparative effectiveness research, and many others. Lastly, a robust quality improvement science program is in place with strong emphasis on evidence-based, rigorously conducted QI initiatives. The research infrastructure in Critical Care Medicine is outstanding, with four full-time research coordinators providing 7-day/week support for the conduct of clinical and translational projects; an in-situ research laboratory in the PICU; a divisional biostatistician; and the resources of the Abigail Wexner Research Institute at Nationwide Children’s Hospital on the same campus.
