Product Overview
Cervical immobilization is a fundamental component of spinal injury management in both tactical and civilian prehospital care. The Philadelphia Patriot Adjustable Cervical Collar delivers reliable, rigid cervical stabilization in a single-piece design that fits a broad range of patient anatomies. Its multi-height adjustment eliminates the need to stock multiple fixed-height collar sizes: adult providers select from four positions, while the pediatric version offers three heights — each providing appropriate chin-to-sternum support for that size range.
The polypropylene construction provides genuine rigidity without excess bulk or weight. Foam padding along the patient-contact surfaces reduces pressure points during extended wear and is comfortable enough for prolonged immobilization during transport. Integrated nasal cannula holders allow supplemental oxygen delivery without collar removal, reducing repeated manipulation of potentially unstable cervical injuries.
The oversized anterior trachea opening supports carotid pulse monitoring, allows application of a cervical tourniquet if needed, and provides clearance for emergent tracheotomy access. The radiolucent construction allows standard X-ray and CT imaging without removing the collar, preserving immobilization continuity through the diagnostic workup in the emergency department.
Application Notes
Measure the distance from the chin to the top of the sternum to determine the appropriate collar height setting. With the patient supine or seated, slide the Patriot Collar into position with the chin support centered, select the desired height adjustment, and secure. The essentially flat, open-panel design makes the collar easy to apply from the front without log-rolling the patient. This feature is particularly valuable in confined spaces, vehicle extrication, or when spinal motion restriction must be maintained throughout extrication.
