COLLAR CERVICAL CHILD SHORT PD4

Aspen Pediatric Cervico-Thoracic Bracing System. Child, Short, PD-4 Cervical Collar. Maximizes both support and comfort, two key components to patient compliance. The structure of the collar has been carefully designed to provide effective motion restriction without producing the painful pressure points that lead to skin breakdown and noncompliance. Three layers of polyethylene combine to produce a support structure that is extremely rigid yet able to flex at its edges to conform to each patient's anatomy. This "layered" design spreads the load over a large area, producing a true custom fit, which has been documented not to produce pressure in excess of capillary closing pressure, the underlying cause of skin breakdown.
