Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Radiology

George C. Velmahos mainly investigates Surgery, Injury Severity Score, Trauma center, Blunt trauma and Abdomen. His work focuses on many connections between Surgery and other disciplines, such as Radiology, that overlap with his field of interest in Vascular disease. His research in Trauma center intersects with topics in Sinus rhythm, Splenic disease, Percutaneous and Stab wound.

His work in Blunt trauma covers topics such as Blunt which are related to areas like Medical record. His Abdomen study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Abdominal trauma, Laparotomy, Complication and Peritonitis. George C. Velmahos interconnects Body mass index and Anesthesia, Resuscitation in the investigation of issues within Intensive care unit.

His most cited work include:

  • Practice Management Guidelines for the Prevention of Venous Thromboembolism in Trauma Patients: The EAST Practice Management Guidelines Work Group (527 citations)
  • Operative repair or endovascular stent graft in blunt traumatic thoracic aortic injuries: Results of an American Association for the Surgery of Trauma multicenter study (312 citations)
  • Pelvic fractures: epidemiology and predictors of associated abdominal injuries and outcomes. (280 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

George C. Velmahos mostly deals with Surgery, Injury Severity Score, Intensive care medicine, Anesthesia and Trauma center. Many of his studies on Surgery apply to Radiology as well. His Injury Severity Score study overlaps with Intensive care unit and Glasgow Coma Scale.

Intensive care medicine is closely attributed to Emergency medicine in his work. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Trauma center and Injury prevention in his work. His Blunt trauma research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Blunt and Penetrating trauma.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Surgery (46.85%)
  • Injury Severity Score (15.76%)
  • Intensive care medicine (12.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (10.03%)
  • Emergency medicine (10.89%)
  • Surgery (46.85%)

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

His primary areas of study are Internal medicine, Emergency medicine, Surgery, Retrospective cohort study and Injury Severity Score. His study in the fields of Odds ratio, Logistic regression and Confidence interval under the domain of Internal medicine overlaps with other disciplines such as In patient. His research integrates issues of Evidence-based medicine, MEDLINE, Cohort study and Traumatic brain injury in his study of Emergency medicine.

His Surgery research incorporates elements of Adverse effect and Incidence. His study on Retrospective cohort study also encompasses disciplines like

  • Cohort together with Acute care surgery and Radiology,
  • Intensive care unit, which have a strong connection to Intubation, Propensity score matching, Laparotomy and Observational study. His studies in Blunt trauma integrate themes in fields like Blunt and Vital signs.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Abdominal Imaging Findings in COVID-19: Preliminary Observations. (102 citations)
  • Diagnosis and treatment of acute appendicitis: 2020 update of the WSES Jerusalem guidelines (73 citations)
  • Gastrointestinal Complications in Critically Ill Patients With COVID-19 (39 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Surgery
  • Internal medicine
  • Radiology

Emergency medicine, Retrospective cohort study, Surgery, General surgery and Injury Severity Score are his primary areas of study. His work on Polytrauma is typically connected to Injury prevention, Suicide prevention and Human factors and ergonomics as part of general Emergency medicine study, connecting several disciplines of science. The concepts of his Retrospective cohort study study are interwoven with issues in Odds ratio, Incidence, Survival rate and Fresh frozen plasma.

The various areas that George C. Velmahos examines in his Odds ratio study include Young adult and Logistic regression. His study involves Mortality rate, Propensity score matching, Surgical site, Endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography and Biliary tract disease, a branch of Surgery. His General surgery research incorporates themes from Emergency surgery, Intensive care unit, Evidence-based medicine and Acs nsqip.
