Projects & Publications
We are proud of the research we do here at Denver Health, and we are also proud of the research done by our research fellows and assistants outside of our facility. Below is a collection of work done by our team over the years.
Evolution of plate design and material composition
David J. Hak, Rodrigo Banegas, Kyros Ipaktchi, Cyril Mauffrey
Abstract:
The evolution of plate fixation of fracture was accompanied by advances in metallurgy and improvement Compression plate
in understanding of the requirements for successful fracture healing. Locked internal fixation minimizes Non-locking plate Locking plate Carbon fibre plate.
Radiographic Evaluation of Acetabular
Fractures: Review and Update on Methodology
Cyril Mauffrey, Stephen Stacey, Philip J. York, Bruce H. Ziran, Michael T. Archdeacon
Abstract:
Despite increased availability of modern imaging techniques, plain radiographs remain the initial step in the classification of acetabular fractures...Our diagnostic algorithm uses three plain radiographs to classify the fracture into one of the 10 fracture patterns described by Judet and Letournel.
Vertical shear pelvic injury: evaluation, management, and fixation strategies
Laura Blum, Mark E. Hake, Ryan Charles, Todd Conlan, David Rojas, Murphy Trey Martin, Cyril Mauffrey
Abstract:
Vertical shear pelvic ring fractures are rare and account for less than 1% of all fractures. Unlike severely displaced antero- posterior compression and lateral compression pelvic fractures, patients’ mortality is lower... Our paper reviews the acute management, associated injuries and definitive reduction and fixation strategies of vertical shear pelvic fractures.

Geographic
Jason Nadaeu - Contributor
Abstract:
