Mark van Vledder

Dr. Mark van Vledder is a researcher in the Department of Surgery at Erasmus MC, Netherlands. His work focuses on trauma surgery, surgical oncology, and outcomes research, with a strong emphasis on injury epidemiology, triage, sarcopenia, and prosthetic rehabilitation following amputation.

His primary research interests include:

• Trauma and injury prevention
• Colorectal and liver metastasis
• Osseointegration and prosthetic outcomes
• Pediatric trauma and pelvic fractures
• Oxygen therapy in critical trauma care
• Systematic reviews and bibliometric analysis

His recent publications reveal a consistent focus on high-impact clinical questions using robust methodologies such as randomized trials, cohort studies, and systematic reviews. Key themes across his work include optimizing trauma triage, understanding long-term injury trends, and improving patient-centered outcomes in amputation and prosthetic care.

Notable contributions include participation in the TRAUMOX2 randomized clinical trial on oxygen therapy in trauma and leading studies on patient preferences for bone-anchored prostheses. His work has been published in leading journals such as JAMA, Injury Prevention, and Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery.

He collaborates extensively with researchers across Erasmus MC and international institutions, particularly in trauma and surgical oncology networks.
