Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Omar Hejazi"
- Omar Hejazi's recent research primarily focuses on trauma care and outcomes, investigating the effectiveness and management strategies for various types of trauma injuries, including blunt aortic injuries, lung injuries, and vascular injuries in pediatric and geriatric populations.
- He has conducted multiple studies using large datasets, such as the American College of Surgeons Trauma Quality Improvement Program (ACS-TQIP), to analyze factors influencing outcomes in trauma patients, including the impact of obesity, frailty, and the role of specific interventions like REBOA in hemorrhage control.
- His work aims to improve clinical practices in trauma surgery by comparing operative versus non-operative approaches, understanding patient-related factors affecting care quality (e.g., failure to rescue), and developing predictive measures to assess the futility of resuscitation in older adults.
