For the past 35 years, Dr. van der Jagt has provided a broad and diverse spectrum of pediatric care including primary care, pediatric critical care, pediatric hospital medicine, pediatric transport medicine and pediatric procedural sedation. He was the first full time pediatric intensivist at the institution formally initiating the discipline of pediatric critical care medicine. Similarly, he initiated pediatric hospital medicine as both a discipline and a division of the department of pediatrics. He is Chief of pediatric hospital medicine, manages its practice and and continues to be active in quality improvement/assurance projects and committees throughout the Children's Hospital (e.g. GCH Quality and Safety Committee, GCH Resuscitation and Rapid Response Team Committees). Another large component of his clinical practice is pediatric procedural sedation including being formally designated as the Pediatric Sedation Officer for the Children's Hospital. In this capacity he is responsible for overseeing all pediatric procedural sedation at the institution.

Dr. van der Jagt's current primary research interests are in Pediatric Resuscitation,, Pediatric Pain/Sedation Management, Pediatric Hospital Medicine, Quality Improvement and Pediatric Simulation in Healthcare. As a member of the national American Heart Association Pediatric Sub-Committee for about 10 years, he helped evaluate the scientific evidence underlying the international guidelines for pediatric resuscitation which are reviewed every five years. In addition, his scholarly work has included not only formal participation in resuscitation research (e.g. as site investigator of the THAPCA project), but also in the use of simulation methods for educating the healthcare community in the management of acute emergency events in children, including resuscitation..He has been involved in numerous local quality improvement projects in the hospital setting and is currently developing active research in the indications for Pediatric Rapid Response Teams.
