OverviewAI-generated summary

Rania Elkhateb's research focuses on critical areas within anesthesiology and maternal health, utilizing retrospective study designs to analyze patient outcomes. Her work investigates the performance characteristics of sepsis screening tools during antepartum, postpartum, and delivery admissions, aiming to improve early detection and management of this condition in pregnant and postpartum individuals. Elkhateb also examines patient-reported outcome measures for postpartum depression, aligning with the Consensus-Based Standards for the Selection of Health Measurement Instruments guideline. Her research extends to patient populations with specific medical needs, including neuromuscular blockade in renal impairment and the efficacy of ultramassive transfusions in trauma patients. Additionally, she has explored racial disparities in chronic pain management and investigated dorsal root ganglion size in patients with complex regional pain syndrome. Elkhateb is an instructor in Anesthesiology at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, with a publication record that includes work on optimizing systems for postpartum hemorrhage management.
