Biography

Eric Leo Eisenstein is an Associate Professor Emeritus in the Department of Medicine at Duke University. He has been a key member of the Duke Clinical Research Institute’s Outcomes Research Assessment Group, focusing on understanding the relationships between complex interventions and health care systems in relation to long-term clinical and economic outcomes for patients. His work has notably involved serving as Principal Investigator for phase II, III, and IV studies concerning economic quality of life, which were conducted alongside randomized clinical trials in cardiovascular, emergency, pulmonary, and vascular medicine surgery. He has extensive experience in health technology evaluations, employing innovative research methods to analyze key relationships from observational patient data. His research includes assessments of long-term clinical outcomes in coronary artery disease patients receiving various types of stents and evaluates factors that contribute to costs in multi-center randomized clinical trials. Eisenstein also has a keen interest in evaluating information technology interventions within health care systems, collaborating on large-scale randomized clinical trials to assess clinical decision support systems.
