Cervical spine collars are padded, prefabricated neck supports designed to stabilize the cervical spine after injuries like fractures, sprains, or whiplash. They limit head movement while providing gentle support to prevent further damage during recovery or transport.
These devices are typically single-use, meaning they are intended for one-time clinical application. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their intended use and risk level, with supply often categorized as medical or surgical aids.
