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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Disease

His primary areas of study are Intensive care medicine, Intensive care, Sepsis, Intensive care unit and Internal medicine. His Intensive care medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Acute kidney injury, Hemodynamics, Observational study and MEDLINE. In his study, Cohort and Epidemiology is inextricably linked to Emergency medicine, which falls within the broad field of Intensive care.

His Sepsis research includes elements of Microcirculation and C-reactive protein. His Internal medicine study also includes

  • Surgery which connect with Anesthesia,
  • Placebo, which have a strong connection to Clinical endpoint. His work focuses on many connections between Septic shock and other disciplines, such as Shock, that overlap with his field of interest in Mean arterial pressure.
