the closure strap release is on the left side.)
Note: If a patient is in the recumbent position, it is best to apply the posterior section of
the collar (Step 3) first, before attempting Step 2.
2. Apply the collar to the patient’s neck. Position and secure the mandible (lower jaw) in the
upper front chin recess. The lower yoke should rest flush with the thoracic (upper and
middle part of the back) region. Using the two screw knobs located toward the bottom of
the chin yoke, adjust the height of the collar and chin (if needed) to fit patient.
3. While holding the anterior portion of the collar securely in place, position back of neck in
brace and secure the upper strap to the corresponding knob on the side of the chin.
Loosen or tighten the posterior strap dial to secure in place. Repeat for lower closure
strap by securing to knob at side of yoke.
