Why Do We Put Cervical Collars On Conscious Trauma 8-Jun-2016 At 11:30:47 PM hairy1
Message
Often in the transport setting the best way to do no harm is to do nothing besides transportation. But some people do struggle with the idea of doing nothing and collars are an easy way to make you feel like you've done something for a patient. Lots of interventions/treatments have intuitive and logical assumptions behind them but are subsequently shown to have minimal/no positive effect or in fact cause harm (oxygen therapy when you don't need it, steroids in spinal injury, everything in ICU ;-)
