Article Figures & Data

Figures

  • Figure 1
    Figure 1

    Traumatic cervical fracture cases from 2003 to 2012. Number of cases is represented along the y-axis. A linear trend line with an extrapolated future projection is plotted alongside cases of traumatic cervical fracture per year.

  • Figure 2
    Figure 2

    Rates of closed cervical fracture levels across age groups. Fracture rate trends of varying cervical spine levels are plotted across age groups. Exact rates for each level are shown via the incorporated data table.

  • Figure 3
    Figure 3

    Overall rates of concurrent injuries. Represents percentage of patients for each x-axis concurrent injury, in relation to total cervical spine fracture cases.
