Verstellbare Halskrause Philadelphia Patriot

What sizes does the Philadelphia Patriot Adjustable Cervical Collar come in?

The Patriot Collar is available in Adult and Pediatric sizes. The Adult version adjusts to 4 different height settings, while the Pediatric version adjusts to 3 heights, allowing a single collar to fit a range of patient anatomies without needing multiple fixed-height sizes.

Is the Philadelphia Patriot Collar radiolucent for X-ray and CT imaging?

Yes. The Patriot Collar is fully radiolucent, meaning it does not need to be removed for standard X-ray or CT imaging. This is a critical feature for maintaining cervical immobilization continuity during the diagnostic phase of trauma management in the emergency department.

Does the Patriot Collar have a trachea opening?

Yes. The Patriot Collar has an oversized anterior trachea opening designed to allow carotid pulse monitoring, supplemental oxygen delivery, and access for emergency tracheotomy procedures without removing the collar.

What material is the Philadelphia Patriot Collar made from?

The Patriot Collar is injection-molded from high-density polypropylene with foam padding on the patient-contact surfaces. The rigid polypropylene shell provides cervical immobilization while the foam lining reduces pressure points during extended wear and transport.

Can the Philadelphia Patriot Collar be stacked for storage in EMS cabinets or forward aid stations?

Yes. The Patriot Collar features an essentially flat, low-profile design that allows it to be stacked compactly for storage in EMS cabinets, forward aid stations, vehicle kits, and mass casualty caches. The Box of 50 option is specifically designed for department-level restocking and bulk use.
