Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Disease

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Intensive care medicine, Surgery, Pediatrics and Retrospective cohort study. His Intensive care medicine research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Bacteremia, Antibiotics, Vaccine safety and MEDLINE. His research in MEDLINE intersects with topics in Medical prescription, Clinical trial, Health care and Medical emergency.

His Surgery research incorporates themes from Statin and Disease. His Pediatrics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Antibacterial agent, Incidence, Emergency medicine, Public health and Otitis. The concepts of his Retrospective cohort study study are interwoven with issues in Antimicrobial, Prescription drug, Gestation, Antidepressant and Physical therapy.

His most cited work include:

  • Incidence of hospitalized rhabdomyolysis in patients treated with lipid-lowering drugs. (731 citations)
  • Reducing antibiotic use in children: a randomized trial in 12 practices. (617 citations)
  • Epidemiology of sepsis syndrome in 8 academic medical centers. (554 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Internal medicine, Intensive care medicine, Surgery, Retrospective cohort study and Health care. His work in Internal medicine is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Immunology. The Intensive care medicine study combines topics in areas such as Randomized controlled trial, Antibiotics, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus and MEDLINE.

His Surgery study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Antibiotic prophylaxis. His Retrospective cohort study research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Drug, Pediatrics, Emergency medicine and Medical record. His Pediatrics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Incidence and Intensive care.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (31.43%)
  • Intensive care medicine (22.24%)
  • Surgery (20.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Health care (15.31%)
  • Intensive care medicine (22.24%)
  • MEDLINE (13.06%)

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

Richard Platt mainly investigates Health care, Intensive care medicine, MEDLINE, Internal medicine and Randomized controlled trial. Richard Platt interconnects Incidence, Retrospective cohort study and Sepsis in the investigation of issues within Intensive care medicine. His Incidence study combines topics in areas such as Observational study and Medical record.

His Medical record study is associated with Surgery. His studies in Retrospective cohort study integrate themes in fields like Odds ratio and Surgical site infection. Internal medicine is frequently linked to Oncology in his study.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Targeted versus Universal Decolonization to Prevent ICU Infection (453 citations)
  • Launching PCORnet, a national patient-centered clinical research network (302 citations)
  • Intussusception Risk after Rotavirus Vaccination in U.S. Infants (211 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Disease

Richard Platt mainly focuses on Health care, Intensive care medicine, Internal medicine, Intensive care and Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The various areas that Richard Platt examines in his Health care study include Alternative medicine and Medical education. In his research on the topic of Intensive care medicine, Retrospective cohort study, Mortality rate, Bacteremia and Emergency medicine is strongly related with Sepsis.

He studies Absolute risk reduction, a branch of Internal medicine. His study on Intensive care also encompasses disciplines like

  • Isolation, Pediatrics and Observational study most often made with reference to Randomized controlled trial,
  • Mrsa screening which is related to area like Disease transmission. Richard Platt has researched Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in several fields, including Staphylococcal infections, Intensive care unit and Infection control.
