2018, Spine JournalCitation Excerpt :Cervical spine injury (CSI) is a potentially devastating injury. Approximately 2%–4% of blunt trauma patients suffer CSI [1–4]. Falls are common in the elderly, and elderly patients may sustain a CSI after a seemingly low energy trauma—including ground-level falls [5,6].

2011, American Journal of Emergency MedicineCitation Excerpt :If the prehospital transportation policy followed the recommendation of Advanced Trauma Life Support (to usually immobilize patients before transport to the ED), this might cause many patients to be unnecessarily restrained and result in many complications. Bayless and Ray [14] have suggested that alert and asymptomatic patients can be spared cervical spine injuries. Como et al [9] suggested that awake and alert trauma patients without neurologic deficit or distracting injury, who have no neck pain or tenderness and with full range of motion, can be cleared for cervical spine injury.
