Abstract

Introduction: Intended for use by prehospital first responders, the Lubo TM cervical collar is an adjustable, radiolucent, single-use device that incorporates a mechanical jaw thrust mechanism. The combination enables non-invasive airway management in cases of trauma where cervical motion restriction is necessary. The potential benefits include use as an airway adjuvant maintaining upper airway patency, reducing provider task loading. The limited research on the device efficacy and safety requires further investigation.Methods: A randomized, crossover, interventional study was performed to com
