NEXUS Cervical Spine Rule
Radiography is not necessary if the patient satisfies ALL of the following low risk criteria:
- No midline cervical tenderness
- No focal neuro deficits
- Normal alertness
- No intoxication
- No painful distracting injury
C-spine imaging should be considered unless the patient meets all of the above low risk criteria[1] [2]
