Canadian Cervical Spine Rule
No High Risk Factors
- Age >65
- Dangerous mechanism (fall>3ft/5 stairs, high speed MVC (>60mph)/rollover/ejection, bicycle crash, RV, axial load injury)
- Parasthesias in extremities
ANY Low Risk Factor
- Simple rear end MVC
- Delayed onset of pain
- Sitting position in ED
- Ambulatory at any time
- Absence of midline C-spine tenderness
ROM
- Rotates neck 45 degrees to left and right
C-spine can be cleared clinically if above criteria met[1] [2]
