Soft Foam Cervical Collar -Stockinette
A cervical collar, also known as a neck brace, is a medical device used to support a person’s neck. It is also applied by emergency personnel to those who have had traumatic head or neck injuries and can be used to treat chronic medical conditions.
Whenever people have a traumatic head or neck injury, they may have a cervical fracture. This makes them at high risk for spinal cord injury, which could be exacerbated by the movement of the person and could lead to paralysis or death. A common scenario for this injury would be a person suspected of having whiplash because of a car accident. In order to prevent further injury, such people may have a collar placed by medical professionals until X-rays can be taken to determine if a cervical spine fracture exists
