Safar Center for Resuscitation
Research
Founded by Dr. Peter Safar, and directed by Dr.
Patrick Kochanek, the Safar Center for Resuscitation Research exists
within the Department of Critical Care Medicine and receives some
financial support from this Department to fund its research activities.
The current research foci of the Center (treatment
of head trauma and hemorrhagic shock), are specifically related
to Critical Care Medicine, as Dr. Kochanek is a pediatrician and
intensivist. In this year, the most exciting development was the
successful acquisition of funding for a T-32 grant entitled “Training
in Pediatric Neurointensive Care and Resuscitation Research”
by the National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research of the
National Institute of Child Health and Development (NICHD). In addition,
Center members headed by Dr. Peter Safar (Drs. Kochanek, Clark,
Tisherman) continue in its mission through a study funded by the
U.S. Army entitled “Novel Resuscitation from Lethal Hemorrhage:
Suspended Animation for Delayed Resuscitation”.
