Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Steven M. Cherney's research focuses on orthopedic surgery, particularly fracture fixation and post-operative outcomes. His work investigates the prevalence and risk factors associated with chronic opioid use in adult populations, including elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery and orthopaedic polytrauma patients. Cherney also studies the effectiveness of specific surgical techniques, such as the use of locking attachment plates for periprosthetic femur fractures, and examines bundled payment models for hip and femur fractures to understand variations in cost and readmissions.

His publications also touch upon the impact of external events, like COVID-19 lockdown orders, on orthopedic trauma volume. Cherney is a faculty member at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and has a recent publication in 2025. His scholarly metrics include an h-index of 12 with 29 total publications and 568 total citations. He has collaborated with Jeffrey B. Stambough, Simon C. Mears, Kasa B. Cooper, and David B. Bumpass, all from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
