De Lorenzo, Robert A.

Vice Chair of Research and Professor/Clinical

Personal Statement:

Dr. Robert A. De Lorenzo is a professor of emergency medicine at UT Health San Antonio (UTHSA) and Vice Chair of Research for the Department of Emergency Medicine.  He holds an additional appointment as an Adjoint Faculty Member in the Joint Graduate Program in Biomedical Engineering at the University  of Texas at San Antonio & UTHSA, and is Faculty Associate at the Military Health Institute, UTHSA.  He has been board certified in emergency medicine for over 25 years and completed medical fellowships in research and Emergency Medical Services (EMS).  He holds a bachelor’s degree in bioengineering and masters’ degrees in clinical investigations and healthcare management.  He is the author of two textbooks in EMS and has published over 200 scientific papers, medical articles, and textbook chapters.  He is co-inventor on multiple patents.  He retired from the US Army after a career spanning 32 years including two combat tours in Iraq.  He is past president of the Government Services Chapter of ACEP and past Chair of the Public Health and Injury Prevention Committee.  Dr. De Lorenzo has been invited to serve on numerous national-level advisory panels including the US Department of Justice, Health and Human Services, National Guard Bureau, Department of Defense, and Department of Transportation.  His professional interest include research in airway management technology, acute preoperative management of open fractures, simulation modeling for life saving interventions, medical device evaluations, and innovation education for university and professional students.

Dr. De Lorenzo is President and co-founder of EmergenceMed, LLC, a university tech startup with a focus on developing airway solutions to solve critical problems in emergency care, trauma, and in combat casualties.  The company’s first product is a highly portable yet powerful suction device that advances the state-of-art and allows individual EMS and combat medics to provide lifesaving suctions in a lightweight powered and disposable device.  Other innovations in the pipeline include an advanced-materials endotracheal tube that will dramatically improve the century-old technology while increasing the speed of intubation and reducing morbidity associated with old-fashioned plastic tubes.  The company is also in the early stages of developing a multimodal suction unit that can serve multiple clinical indications in the continuum of care from the prehospital phases to damage control surgery and critical care transport.
