Mucio Kit Delgado's Curriculum Vitae (82.3KB, modified August 2009)
Kit Delgado joined PCOR in 2009 as a trainee in the AHRQ Fellowship in Health Care Research and Policy. He is an emergency physician who is interested in the public health impact of emergency departments in the U.S.
He is primarily interested in indentifying regional and socioeconomic disparities in outcomes for critical medical conditions (e.g. myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, stroke, trauma, and pediatrics) related to access to quality emergency care. He will be learning to combine outcomes analysis of state and national datasets with geographic information systems (GIS) to map regional disparities. He is also interested in using cost-effectiveness analysis to study the impact of regionalized EMS systems.
He has conducted research on the capability of U.S. emergency departments to provide preventive health care, as well as patient preferences for preventive care in the ED. This work led to the awards of Best Research and Best Presentation at the American College of Emergency Physicians (California Chapter), Research Forum, 2009.
Dr. Delgado completed his emergency medicine training in the Stanford-Kaiser Emergency Medicine Program and medical school at Columbia University, College of Physicians and Surgeons. He received his bachelor's degree from the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princeton University.
