Neck brace may be unnecessary for stable fractures, study suggests
NCT ID NCT06848660
First seen Apr 30, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a rigid collar is needed for stable neck fractures that don't require surgery. About 616 adults with these fractures will be treated either with a collar for 12 weeks or without one. The goal is to see if both approaches lead to equally good healing, while avoiding collar-related problems like pressure sores and swallowing difficulties.
