Military NeXsplint Plus (NSN: 6515-01-570-3316) is the compact/tactical version of the XCollar. It is designed to splint the Cervical Spine by securing the head to the torso of the patient above C-1 and below C-7; on two points anterior and two points posterior. This splinting system utilizes bi-lateral and vertical adjustments to obtain a customized fit for both the desired circumference and height of large adults and small pediatric patients; working to increase patient safety by minimizing potential Cervical Spinal distraction and injury.
An important feature of the NeXsplint Plus is the Integrated Head Restraint System (HRS) which replaces the use of head blocks, towels or tape. Each NeXsplint Plus is equipped with one HRS consisting of an integrated set of Velcro straps which are used with the NeXsplint Plus to secure the patient to the backboard; minimizing lateral and vertical movement. The HRS also includes a height-adjustable Occipital Support Pad to ensure proper patient spinal alignment. Capable of customizing to fit patient body types ranging from pediatric (approx. 22 lbs) to extra-large adult (approx. 360+ lbs). Splints the cervical spine in the “Position of Comfort”, or Position Found.
The adjustable, integrated Head Restraint System (HRS) eliminates the need for head blocks, towels, and tape while minimizing vertical and lateral patient movement during transport. Occipital Support Pad is adjustable in 1/2-inch increments for up to 2 inches. Oversized trachea opening allows for carotid pulse checks, advanced airway procedures, and easy visual assessment. Latex-free materials are radiolucent, MRI and CT scan compatible. Available in Military Green.
