Dr. Ross's research interests are in the field of pediatric resuscitation, specifically directed at peri-arrest management and prevention of pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest. Her research has focused on preventing out-of-ICU cardiac arrest using pediatric early warning systems; aborting impending cardiac arrest in the intensive care unit with pre-arrest bolus epinephrine; and preventing cardiac arrest in pediatric massive pulmonary embolism.
Research Background
Dr. Ross completed medical school at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. She went on to complete her Pediatrics residency at UCLA and Pediatric Critical Care Medicine fellowship at Stanford University. She joined the faculty at Boston Children's Hospital Medical ICU in 2016 and the research team at the Center for Resuscitation Science at BIDMC in 2017.
