Cervical Collar with Tracheostomy Opening | Adjustable Neck Support for Recovery

Cervical Collar with Tracheostomy Opening

Neck injuries, cervical trauma, and post-operative recovery require reliable support systems that combine safety, comfort, and practicality. The Cervical Collar (Tracheostomy Open) has been carefully designed to provide firm neck immobilization while allowing easy access and ventilation for patients who require a tracheostomy. Unlike standard collars, this model integrates a front opening, ensuring medical professionals can perform essential care without compromising neck stability.

This product is widely used in emergency medicine, rehabilitation clinics, hospitals, and home care settings, making it a versatile choice for both short-term and long-term patient management. Whether it’s used after surgery, for cervical spine injuries, or during intensive care, it offers an excellent balance between support, comfort, and accessibility.

Key Features

• Tracheostomy Opening – Specially designed front opening allows quick access to tracheostomy tubes without removing the collar.

• Firm Immobilization – Provides stable support for the cervical spine, reducing unwanted movement during recovery.

• Lightweight & Comfortable – Made from high-quality, skin-friendly materials suitable for extended wear.

• Adjustable Straps – Velcro fastening system ensures a secure and customizable fit for different neck circumferences.

• Beige Color – Neutral and discreet design suitable for hospital and home environments.

• Multiple Sizes Available – Available in Small (34–36 cm), Medium (36–38 cm), and Large (38–40 cm) to ensure proper fit.

Clinical Applications

The Cervical Collar (Tracheostomy Open) is recommended for a wide range of clinical conditions, including:

• Post-tracheostomy patient care

• Post-surgical cervical spine stabilization

• Trauma management in emergency care

• Rehabilitation after neck or spinal surgery

• Cervical spine injuries requiring immobilization

• ICU or hospital settings requiring safe airway management

Why the Tracheostomy Opening Matters

Traditional cervical collars often restrict access to the neck area, making it difficult for medical teams to manage tracheostomy tubes. This product solves that issue by incorporating a strategically placed anterior opening.

This opening provides:

• Easy airway access for suctioning, cleaning, or emergency interventions.

• Improved ventilation around the tracheostomy site, reducing skin irritation.

• Safer patient monitoring without needing to remove the collar and compromise immobilization.

Patient Comfort & Usability

Comfort is a key factor when patients need to wear cervical collars for extended periods. The beige, padded structure of this collar minimizes skin pressure, while its ergonomic design reduces discomfort around the jaw and shoulders.

Its Velcro fastening system makes it easy to adjust and secure, even for caregivers with minimal medical training. This ensures the collar can be used both in professional healthcare environments and for at-home patient care.

Sizing Guide

To ensure the best therapeutic results, proper sizing is essential:

• Small (S): 34–36 cm neck circumference

• Medium (M): 36–38 cm neck circumference

• Large (L): 38–40 cm neck circumference

Measure the patient’s neck circumference before selecting the size to guarantee correct immobilization and comfort.
