DOI: 10.1097/ta.0000000000001729

Abstract: BACKGROUND The optimal timing of surgical stabilization of rib fractures (SSRF) remains debated. We hypothesized that (1) demographic, radiologic, and clinical variables are associated with time to surgery and (2) shorter time to SSRF improves… read more here.
