Biography

Dr. Henning is an emergency physician, caring for patients in the Emergency Departments at both Harborview Medical Center and University of Washington Medical Center. He strives to improve the care of Emergency Department patients by improving the clinical evaluation in the early stages of care.

Dr. Henning studies early decision making in time-dependent critical diseases, such as sepsis and acute kidney injury.  He is interested in optimizing the clinical evaluation and identifying opportunities to improve diagnostic and therapeutic decisions in these diseases.  In particular, he enjoys evaluating the ability of novel tests in addressing uncertainty in decision making. He receives funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Medic One Foundation.
