Rowan, MD, about the article, “Implementation of Continuous Capnography Is Associated with a Decreased Utilization of Blood Gases,” published in the Journal of Clinical Medicine Research. Dr. Rowan works as a Critical Care Intensivist in the Department of Pediatrics at Indiana University School of Medicine Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis, Indiana.
