OverviewAI-generated summary

Jill Mhyre's research focuses on anesthesia and pain management, with a particular emphasis on obstetric anesthesia and its application in cesarean delivery and childbirth.

Her work has investigated the efficacy of different epidural techniques for surgical anesthesia during elective cesarean deliveries and the optimal dosage of intrathecal chloroprocaine with fentanyl for prophylactic cervical cerclage. Mhyre has also examined factors associated with maternal mortality, including outcomes from in-hospital maternal cardiac arrest and strategies for optimizing systems to manage postpartum hemorrhage. Her research extends to patient beliefs and expectations regarding neuraxial analgesia, specifically in pregnant Hispanic women, and explores the challenges of neuromuscular blockade in patients with renal impairment.

Mhyre is Chair of the Department Chairs in the College of Medicine at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and leads a research group. Her scholarly contributions are recognized, evidenced by an h-index of 39 and over 7,500 citations across 175 publications. She has collaborated with researchers such as Nadir El Sharawi, Rania Elkhateb, Caroline Martinello, and Breyanna M. Dulaney.
