About
Dr. Suzanne Schuh is a pioneering researcher in pediatric emergency medicine, with a primary focus on acute asthma management, bronchiolitis, and evidence-based clinical decision-making. Her major contributions include landmark studies on the efficacy of nebulized epinephrine versus salbutamol in infants with bronchiolitis, and the development of validated clinical scores to predict hospitalization and guide treatment in acute asthma. Her work has fundamentally shaped international guidelines for pediatric respiratory emergencies. With over 100 peer-reviewed publications, her most cited papers—such as those on high-flow nasal cannula therapy and corticosteroid use in asthma—have garnered thousands of citations, underscoring their global impact. Notably, Dr. Schuh led the first randomized controlled trial demonstrating the superiority of dexamethasone over prednisone in acute asthma, a finding that transformed standard care. She is also a recipient of the Canadian Paediatric Society’s Award for Excellence in Research. Her rigorous, patient-oriented research continues to empower clinicians with actionable, evidence-based tools for managing critically ill children.
