    I have been a paramedic for over 34 years, and in my entire career this is the first collar I've seen that actually WORKS. It is by definition a cervical SPLINT. Just like any other splint that immobilizes above and below the fracture, the X Collar does the exact same thing for the neck. It is so immobilized, like any other splint, it's done. Use of a head block or other immobilization device is unnecessary. And it can be applied by 1 person, a real plus with multiple patients or limited staff
