Abstract
The Bio-Con collar is described. The collar is fully adjustable and the head and cervical spine may be immobilised to any degree of flexion or extension desired. The head is held in position by means of a rigid head frame fitted with a chin and two occipital pads. By the virtue of the fact that this is attached to a firm base by means of adjustable metal pads the cervical spine is effectively immobilised.Keywords
