Research Overview

Dr. Stroud attended medical school at UAMS, completed residency training at the University of Oklahoma, and completed fellowship training at UAMS/ACH. During his fellowship, Dr. Stroud developed an interest in clinical research in the pediatric transport environment. The randomized, controlled trial he completed during fellowship was the first clinical trial during pediatric transport. Results of this study showed improved outcomes for acutely ill pediatric patients with improved monitoring techniques during pediatric inter-facility transport.

Dr. Stroud’s current research interests include conducting clinical trials in the pediatric transport environment, and developing protocols, procedures, and monitoring techniques to improve the functional and clinical outcomes of critically ill pediatric transport patients. Dr. Stroud’s research has received numerous awards including the Fellow’s Clinical Research Award from the Society for Pediatric Research, Best In-Training Award from the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), and the C. Robert Chambliss Best Paper Award from the AAP.
