研究概览
简要总结
This is an observational study which aims to assess the comfort of a spinal collar in patients who have them fitted as part of their clinical care due to neck injury.
详细描述
The study follows the patient journey including long term follow up (up to 120 days following admission). The information gathered will be from the standard clinical care delivered and include demographics, baseline function, the injuries sustained following trauma and prescribed analgesia with records of the most recent time and dose administered. Any scans done of the neck for clinical purposes will be anonymised and analysed for measurements of angulation. In addition to this there will be a survey on the comfort of the collar and of their functional ability at the current time at various points during their inpatient admission.

结局指标
主要结局
Measurement of the Level of Discomfort Produced by the Spinal Collar in Adult Patients With a C-spine (Neck) Injury.
时间窗: During inpatient admission (an average of two weeks)
'Visual Analogue Scale' for pain (self reported: minimum 0=no pain at all, maximum 10= worst pain imaginable)
次要结局
- Measurement of Change of Impedance on Activities of Daily Living Produced by the Spinal Collar in Adult Patient With a C-spine (Neck) Injury.(At baseline (retrospectively) and at time of wearing the spinal collar after injury)
- Measurement of Spinal Angulation(Through study completion, up to one year)
