Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Fetus

His primary areas of study are Obstetrics, Childbirth, Relative risk, Pediatrics and Gynecology. The various areas that Zarko Alfirevic examines in his Obstetrics study include Gestation, Gestational age, Cervical cerclage, Premature birth and Fetus. His Childbirth research incorporates themes from Cochrane Library, Misoprostol, Intensive care, Umbilical artery and Caesarean section.

Zarko Alfirevic has included themes like Placebo and Reproductive medicine in his Relative risk study. His Pediatrics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Meta-analysis, Treatment outcome, Cardiotocography and Retrospective cohort study. He usually deals with Gynecology and limits it to topics linked to Asymptomatic and Cervical pessary, Color doppler ultrasound and Ultrasound.

His most cited work include:

  • Continuous cardiotocography (CTG) as a form of electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) for fetal assessment during labour (633 citations)
  • Practice guidelines for performance of the routine mid-trimester fetal ultrasound scan. (493 citations)
  • Effect of early tranexamic acid administration on mortality, hysterectomy, and other morbidities in women with post-partum haemorrhage (WOMAN): an international, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (478 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Obstetrics, Pediatrics, Gestation, Childbirth and Randomized controlled trial. The study incorporates disciplines such as Amniocentesis, Misoprostol, Relative risk, Gynecology and Caesarean section in addition to Obstetrics. His studies deal with areas such as Placebo, Clinical trial and Labor induction as well as Misoprostol.

Zarko Alfirevic combines subjects such as Uterine rupture, Vaginal delivery and Odds ratio with his study of Caesarean section. His Pediatrics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Psychological intervention, Gestational age and Cohort study. He regularly links together related areas like Meta-analysis in his Childbirth studies.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Obstetrics (55.19%)
  • Pediatrics (16.51%)
  • Gestation (13.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Obstetrics (55.19%)
  • Pediatrics (16.51%)
  • Randomized controlled trial (11.79%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Obstetrics, Pediatrics, Randomized controlled trial, Gestation and Misoprostol. The Obstetrics study combines topics in areas such as Relative risk, Confidence interval, Meta-analysis, Asymptomatic and Fetus. His Relative risk study also includes

  • Maternal death which intersects with area such as Blood transfusion,
  • Childbirth and related Cardiotocography,
  • Caesarean section which intersects with area such as Placebo.

Zarko Alfirevic has researched Pediatrics in several fields, including Sildenafil, Clinical research, Fetal growth and Intensive care medicine. As a member of one scientific family, Zarko Alfirevic mostly works in the field of Randomized controlled trial, focusing on Gestational age and, on occasion, Clinical trial. His Gestation research includes elements of Likelihood ratios in diagnostic testing and Prospective cohort study.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Continuous cardiotocography (CTG) as a form of electronic fetal monitoring (EFM) for fetal assessment during labour (633 citations)
  • Effect of early tranexamic acid administration on mortality, hysterectomy, and other morbidities in women with post-partum haemorrhage (WOMAN): an international, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial (478 citations)
  • Amniocentesis and chorionic villus sampling for prenatal diagnosis (241 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Surgery
  • Fetus

Zarko Alfirevic focuses on Obstetrics, Pediatrics, Randomized controlled trial, Relative risk and Premature birth. His Obstetrics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Birth weight, Gestational age, Cervical cerclage, Gestation and Confidence interval. His work carried out in the field of Gestational age brings together such families of science as Sildenafil, Fetus and Placebo.

His work in Randomized controlled trial addresses subjects such as Eclampsia, which are connected to disciplines such as Aspirin, Preeclampsia, Vaginal bleeding and Low dose aspirin. His research in Relative risk intersects with topics in Childbirth, Caesarean section and Maternal death. The various areas that he examines in his Childbirth study include Ambulatory care, Cardiotocography and Intensive care.
