Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Kelly D. Urban's research centers on injury prevention, trauma care, and medical education. Urban has investigated strategies to reduce staff injuries in healthcare settings, including the efficacy of protective equipment. Their work also explores educational interventions aimed at improving clinical practice, such as the implementation of fall prevention algorithms and the development of feedback skills for interprofessional teams in trauma simulations. Urban has examined the role of peer support specialists in hospital-based violence intervention programs and studied the effectiveness of virtual debriefings for interprofessional trauma simulations, particularly in the context of social distancing. Additionally, Urban has explored brief interventions for injury-related traumatic stress, focusing on feasibility and psychological safety.
