Capital Collar Enhanced Instructions For Use

Preparation
1. Pre-form front and back of collar prior to fitting. To pre-form, slightly roll panel sides inward with both hands
2. Ensure the front panel is at the lowest height setting. If adjustment is necessary, pull out the plastic tab from the dial to remove/release the Compliance Ring
3. Pull the adjustment dial out and push down on the chin portion of the collar. Push adjustment dial in to re-engage the dial. The adjustment guides should now be at the lowest setting

Application
Ensure all open wounds are covered before applying the device
NOTE: The patient should be in the supine position for collar application
1. To apply, the patient’s head should be in NEUTRAL ALIGNMENT
2. Center the back portion of the collar by sliding the back panel behind the patient’s neck
3. The loop straps should be located between the trapezius and the patient’s ear
4. Slide the front panel of the collar up the patient’s neck and position the sides of the panel over the patient’s trapezius. Align the bottom of the tracheal opening at the sternal notch
NOTE: It is okay if the patient’s chin is not touching the chin piece

Capital Collar Enhanced Sizing Adjustments

NOTE: If the dial tag and compliance ring are applied, refer to step #2 under Preparation
1. Ensure the height adjustment dial is engaged (pushed in). While gently holding the front panel against the patient’s chest, turn the dial clockwise to raise the chin piece. Turn the dial until the chin piece is supporting the patient’s chin
2. Once the chin piece is adjusted to the desired height, the Compliance Ring can be re-applied to ensure patient compliance.
NOTE: Softgoods may require adjustment before fitting
3. If the height of the chin piece needs to be readjusted, remove Compliance Ring and disengage the dial (pull out) and push the chin piece down to the lowest height setting and repeat step #1

Fitting
1. With the front portion of the collar properly adjusted and secured, use bilateral loop straps and fasten to hook portions
2. Minor adjustments can be made to the straps to achieve the desired comfort and a secure, symmetrical fit
