A traumatic brain injury protection compression collar is a wearable device designed to reduce brain movement within the skull during high-impact activities like sports or military training. By gently compressing the jugular veins, it increases blood volume in the skull, potentially lowering the risk of repetitive sub-concussive impacts.
These devices are typically reusable and may come with sizing tools or carrying cases. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, and classification depends on the specific design and intended use, though they are generally considered medical devices when marketed for injury prevention.
