  Publications

Medical and scientific staffs and the clinical and research fellows at the Weil Institute of Critical Care Medicine over the years have written and published more than 1,100 publications in various scientific literature. They have also been granted seventeen U.S. Patents with six more pending.  These reports and patents have contributed to great advances in a number of fields including critical care medicine, cardiology, pulmonary disease and medical technology.

We cite a bibliography that includes publications since 1955 to allow for more detailed professional and technical reference related to ongoing research in The Institute.
