immobilization.

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

Supine Application
Ensure that correct spinal protocol is followed throughout the application.
1. Slide the Back behind the patient´s neck and center it, noting arrow
on panel pointing up (Fig. 4). Ensure the Sorbatex™ padding extends
beyond the edge of the plastic.
NOTE: Long hair should be placed outside of the plastic.
2. Flare the sides of the Front out, slide it up the chest wall and scoop it
up under the chin (Fig. 5). Sides of the collar Front should be oriented
up, off the trapezius, and toward the ears.
3. While holding the Front securely, curl the ends snugly against the
patient´s neck (Fig. 6). With the Front of the collar inside the Back,
apply the Hook and Loop Strap and secure the opposite side of the
collar in the same fashion. Tighten straps alternately to an equal
length on both sides.
