Overview
The Tynor Philadelphia Cervical Collar B-05 is designed to immobilize the cervical spine while maintaining a lightweight profile. Made from non-moisture-absorbing Ethafoam, it supports fracture management and post-operative care, and includes an anterior opening to accommodate tracheostomy and enhance ventilation.
Key features
- Lightweight Ethafoam construction: non-moisture-absorbing and easy to clean.
- Anatomical immobilization: pre-formed chin support limits neck rotation for stable alignment.
- Low-friction, balloon-shaped profile: reduces direct skin contact; suitable for patients with cervical burns and trauma.
- Tracheostomy window: facilitates access to the endotracheal tube and promotes continuous aeration of the area.
- Hypoallergenic materials: intended to minimize skin irritation; suitable for prolonged wear, including in older patients.
- Two-piece design: simplifies application and removal while providing firm occipital support.
Indications
- Stable cervical spine fractures.
- Spondylolisthesis and acute cervical spondylitis.
- Post-operative immobilization (e.g., surgery for tuberculosis or vertebral procedures).
- Cervical burn management.
- First aid and transport immobilization of accident victims.
- Post-traction immobilization and neurological conditions requiring restricted neck motion.
