Dr. Hylands describes himself as a "newly minted" Trauma/Surgical Critical Care physician who encountered many questions as he was learning about rib fixation. This curiosity and investigation have led to the paper recently published in the Journal of Trauma. There is an abundance of questions asked and lots to think about with all the brainpower and critical thinking that fills this episode!\nLink for Dr. Hylands' article: https://journals.lww.com/jtrauma/abstract/9900/surgical_stabilization_of_rib_fractures_for_flail.607.aspx.\nYou are not gonna want to miss this one!
