  • Childbirth (7.75%)
  • Coaching (8.02%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of study are MEDLINE, Childbirth, Coaching, Nursing and Intervention. His study in MEDLINE is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Observational study, Young adult, Patient safety, Intensive care medicine and Emergency medicine. His Childbirth research integrates issues from Environmental health, Randomized controlled trial, Public health and Quality management.

Scope is closely connected to Medical education in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Coaching. His Intervention study incorporates themes from Psychological intervention, Advance care planning, Trial number and Behavior change. He has researched Quality of care in several fields, including Surgical safety and Medical emergency.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Health Insurance Coverage and Health — What the Recent Evidence Tells Us (173 citations)
  • Managing COVID-19 in Surgical Systems. (140 citations)
