Description of Research Expertise
Oscar is interested in inpatient clinical emergencies, both inside and outside of the intensive care unit. His research focusses on inpatient decompensation and delays in RRT activation with a goal to improve care for patients who are at risk of decompensation during their hospitalization.Selected Publications
