Gary Fleisher's research has focused on the emergency care of children, with a particularly emphasis on enhancing the understanding of the pathophysiology and management of serious infections. In the laboratory, he has developed models of sepsis that have allowed for the testing of new therapeutic interventions. His clinical research has focused on the diagnosis and treatment of patients with bacteremia and other infectious diseases. Additionally, his work has contributed to the introduction of various clinical procedures, new approaches to care for victims of trauma, enhanced utilization of resources in the emergency department, and innovative applications of computer technology, including real-time surveillance for bioterrorist events.
