Congratulations to DEM faculty member and Lion’s Gate Hospital ED Research Director Dr. Gary Andolfatto. His study on an “Early Analgesia Protocol in the Emergency Department” was recently granted a 2014 “VCHRI Innovation and Translation Award”, co-funded by Vancouver Coastal Health Research Institute and the Lion’s Gate Hospital Foundation. This interesting and important project was discussed at DEM Research in Progress Rounds this past spring, and the topic is highly relevant to ED patient care throughout BC. We’ll look forward to hearing the results of this important investigation, perhaps at 2015 UBC EM Research Day!
