The U.S. Department of Transportation, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's National Standard Curriculum for EMT-Basic training describes protocols for the emergency medical care of a patient who may have sustained cervical spinal injury. These protocols provide the current standard of care for stabilization of the cervical spine at the scene of an incident. These best practices reflect the shortfalls of other cervical collars available for emergency medical personnel.
The XCollar addresses and mitigates these deficiencies and establishes a new standard of care:
Greater degree of immobilization
Immobilizes in a position of comfort
Fits a broader range of patient sizes and types
Custom fit during application
