    Episode 196 - Cervical Spine Immobilization In 2026: Evidence Vs. Dogma (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    We recently made some cervical spine immobilization protocol changes here at MCHD. Dr. Patrick and Dr. DePasquale discuss the history and literature that provide the foundation for rigid cervical collar use, along with the new MCHD protocol implementation. This has been a collaborative process with our local hospital partners, which has definitely involved give-and-take on both sides. REFERENCES 1. Davies G, Deakin C, Wilson A. The effect of a rigid collar on intracranial pressure. Injury. 1996
