Richard E. McClead's work focuses on improving the quality and safety of pediatric hospital care, including reducing hospital readmissions, preventing medication and diagnostic errors, and improving outcomes for newborns affected by opioid exposure (neonatal abstinence syndrome). Much of this research involves quality improvement collaborations across multiple children's hospitals aimed at standardizing clinical practices such as patient handoffs, infant safe sleep, and temperature management during surgery.
Publication output peaked around 2020 with 9 papers but has declined sharply since, with little to no output from 2022 through 2025.
