Philadelphia collar


A Philadelphia collar is a type of brace used to keep your neck and head in the correct position. This gives your injured spinal column and the ligaments time to heal. It also helps support your neck muscles. This collar keeps your neck from moving forward, bending backward, and your head from turning. Staying in bed may cause many pressure sores, blood clots, and other health problems.

The Philadelphia collar lets you get out of bed and start moving sooner after your injury. The Philadelphia collar is made of Non-toxic Plastazote® Foam, with Velcro straps to keep it closed. It consists of a front piece with a chin cup, and a curved back piece that fits against the lower part of your skull (head).This product has been designed and tested based on single patient usage. It is a single-use device and should never be used by multiple patients. If any problems occur with the use of this product, immediately contact your medical professional.
