Dr Ceri Battle is a Consultant Respiratory Physiotherapist and an Honorary Associate Professor in Swansea.
Ceri’s PHD work led to the creation of the STUMBL score, a tool to help determine the risk of complications for patients with rib fractures.
Following her pre-recorded talk to our Bootcamp, she discusses the STUMBL score on the podcast and answers questions that arose from her talk last month.
