OverviewAI-generated summary

Sanjiv Pasala's research focuses on critical care in pediatric populations, with a specific emphasis on hematologic and infectious processes. His work includes investigating the role of von Willebrand factor multimers in pediatric patients supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and exploring the association between platelet glycoprotein VI haplotypes and the presentation of pediatric sepsis. Pasala also studies the relationship between elevated red blood cell distribution width and multiple organ dysfunction in critically ill children. His publications address diverse clinical scenarios, including heparin-induced thrombocytopenia in a child with a ventricular assist device, nephrotoxicity associated with common antibiotic regimens, co-infections in adolescent patients with SARS-CoV-2, and diffuse alveolar hemorrhage in pediatric viral infections. Pasala's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 3 across 18 publications, with a total of 45 citations.

Research Overview

Some of the UAMS College of Medicine faculty members provide pediatric patient care at Arkansas Children's Hospital.
