Cervical spine injuries in civilian victims of explosions: Should cervical collars be used?
Unstable cervical spine injuries secondary to explosion are extremely rare. The majority of unstable cervical spine fractures were secondary to penetrating injuries, with irreversible neurologic deficits on admission. The application of SRCC did not seem to be of any benefit in these patients and might pose a risk of obscuring other neck injuries. We recommend that SRCC will not be used in the prehospital management of victims of explosions.
The results of this study demonstrated that SH is a potential natural anti-obesity agent that can be used in place of sodium chloride.
