Effect of Cervical Collar on Intracranial Pressure
- Conditions
- Optic Nerve Sheath DiameterUltrasonography
- Registration Number
- NCT03609879
- Lead Sponsor
- Lazarski University
- Brief Summary
- The routine use of cervical collar in emergency medical conditions has recently been questioned. The application of cervical collars, as their opponents point out, results in deterioration of intubation conditions, intensification of pain in the region of mastoid processes, and impaired venous outflow from the head.

- Primary Outcome Measures
- Name - Time - Method - Optic nerve sheath diameter 5 minutes after collar placement - 1 day after - During each evaluation with Optic nerve sheath diameter, at least three measurements were attempted from each eye. The ONSD was measured 3 mm behind the retina. All scans were performed using a 13-6 MHz linear-array probe and a high resolution optimization setting. - Optic nerve sheath diameter 20 minutes after collar placement - 1 day after - During each evaluation with Optic nerve sheath diameter, at least three measurements were attempted from each eye. The ONSD was measured 3 mm behind the retina. All scans were performed using a 13-6 MHz linear-array probe and a high resolution optimization setting.
