Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cardiology

Surgery, Anticoagulant, Heparin, Thrombosis and Anesthesia are his primary areas of study. The concepts of his Surgery study are interwoven with issues in Placebo and Warfarin. His study in Anticoagulant is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Coagulopathy, Chemotherapy, Phenylbutazone, Confidence interval and Obstetrics.

His research in Heparin intersects with topics in Discovery and development of direct thrombin inhibitors, Pharmacology and Partial thromboplastin time. His Thrombosis research integrates issues from Radiology, Vascular disease and Vein. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Regimen, Clopidogrel, Aspirin and Warfarin Sodium.

His most cited work include:

  • Evidence-Based Medicine: A New Approach to Teaching the Practice of Medicine (3122 citations)
  • Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia in Patients Treated with Low-Molecular-Weight Heparin or Unfractionated Heparin (1950 citations)
  • Pharmacology and management of the vitamin K antagonists: American College of Chest Physicians Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines (8th Edition). (1747 citations)

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

Jack Hirsh mostly deals with Heparin, Surgery, Internal medicine, Thrombosis and Anesthesia. His research in Heparin intersects with topics in Anticoagulant, Pharmacology and Partial thromboplastin time. His Surgery study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Warfarin.

Jack Hirsh has researched Internal medicine in several fields, including Gastroenterology, Endocrinology and Cardiology. His work investigates the relationship between Thrombosis and topics such as Radiology that intersect with problems in Plethysmograph. His Anesthesia research includes themes of Placebo and Blood coagulation test.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Heparin (31.40%)
  • Surgery (30.67%)
  • Internal medicine (29.43%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2021)?

  • Anesthesia (25.12%)
  • Internal medicine (29.43%)
  • Surgery (30.67%)

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

Jack Hirsh mainly focuses on Anesthesia, Internal medicine, Surgery, Randomized controlled trial and Intensive care medicine. His Anesthesia research incorporates elements of Dabigatran, Warfarin, Heparin, Anticoagulant and Clopidogrel. Internal medicine is frequently linked to Cardiology in his study.

Thrombosis and Low molecular weight heparin are the primary areas of interest in his Surgery study. His Thrombosis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pulmonary embolism and Hip surgery. His Intensive care medicine research incorporates themes from Venous thromboembolism, Clinical trial and Antithrombotic.

Between 2005 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Pharmacology and management of the vitamin K antagonists: American College of Chest Physicians Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines (8th Edition). (1747 citations)
  • Venous thromboembolism, thrombophilia, antithrombotic therapy, and pregnancy: American College of Chest Physicians Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines (8th Edition). (694 citations)
  • Antiplatelet drugs: American College of Chest Physicians Evidence-Based Clinical Practice Guidelines (8th Edition). (681 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Cardiology

His primary scientific interests are in Anesthesia, Antithrombotic, Intensive care medicine, Randomized controlled trial and Internal medicine. Jack Hirsh interconnects Clopidogrel and Warfarin in the investigation of issues within Anesthesia. His Antithrombotic research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Guideline, Physical therapy, Clinical trial and Evidence-based medicine.

His Randomized controlled trial study results in a more complete grasp of Surgery. Thrombosis and Multicenter study are the core of his Surgery study. His research on Internal medicine often connects related areas such as Cardiology.
