- Aspen®Cervical Collars minimize skinbreakdown while providing substantial motionrestriction.
- The structural elements of the collarshave been designed to spread support acrossbroad contact surfaces there by eliminating“hot-spots” that can cause decubitus ulcers.Research has proven that this design enables thecollar to maintain skin contact pressureswell-below the capillary closing threshold.
- The motion restriction provided by theAspen Collar has been scientifically evaluated.Utilizing videofluoroscopy, researchers havedocumented both the translation and angulationof each vertebral segment through the entirerange of motion.
- Results show the Aspensystem to be unsurpassed in its ability tosafeguard the patient.
