He has ten years of teaching experience, pairs clinical anaesthesia practice with active research, and has more than 30 publications. His main interests are airway management, neuroanaesthesia, trauma, biomedical research and medical education. His airway work covers acute airway obstruction, percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy, and premedication for fibre-optic bronchoscopy. It also includes an updated systematic review and meta-analysis, published in renowned journal, comparing supraglottic airway devices with endotracheal intubation for laparoscopic surgery. His neuroanaesthesia training underpins his work on intraoperative brain swelling, analgesia after spine surgery, and postoperative delirium in elderly patients. In the trauma unit, he is closely involved in the acute care of injured patients, and he has contributed to research on hand injuries and the global burden of road injuries. Dr. Kumar is a collaborator in the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) Study. He has coauthored major analyses in The Lancet, The Lancet Infectious Diseases, The Lancet Public Health, The Lancet Global Health and the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, covering all-cause mortality, causes of death, sepsis, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease and enteric infections. His commitment to medical education shows in a randomised controlled trial of multidimensional learning tools for teaching anatomy. His evidence-based approach carries through his clinical, research and teaching work. He is a member of the Indian Society of Anaesthesiologists, the Indian Society of Critical Care Medicine, the Indian Society of Neuroanaesthesia and Critical Care, the Indian Society of Trauma and Acute Care, and the Association of Neuroscientists of Eastern India.
