BCEN CFRN Practice Question

A 30-year-old male involved in a high-speed motor-vehicle collision is found supine on the roadway with complaints of neck pain and tingling in all extremities. Cervical-spine injury is suspected. What is the most appropriate initial intervention to immobilize the patient and prevent secondary spinal cord damage?

  • Place the patient in a semi-Fowler position to reduce neck muscle tension.

  • Apply manual in-line stabilization of the head and neck.

  • Immediately apply a rigid cervical collar without manual stabilization.

  • Log-roll the patient onto a long backboard before stabilizing the neck.
