Anesthesia equipment design,
testing, and consultation are clinical interests for Dr. Hodgson.
Special emphasis is placed on novel methods to deliver safe, controlled,
and economical methods of producing anesthesia and analgesia to clinical
patients. Dr. Hodgson has a recognized expertise in anesthesia equipment
design and frequently consults on a national basis. Ventilatory support
devices are an additional combined clinical and research focus.
Anesthesia patient safety, morbidity and mortality reduction through
equipment configuration has been a long term interest and area of
activity.
