Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of medical rehabilitation equipment technology and discloses a head and neck protection and limiting device, including a back frame. From top to bottom, the back frame is connected to a chin clip, an upper chest clip, and a lower chest clip. The chin clip and upper chest clip are connected by a U-shaped connecting frame, and the upper chest clip and lower chest clip are connected by a strip-shaped connecting frame. Side panels are connected to both sides of the chin clip, and two shoulder plates are connected to the upper chest clip. This utility model, by providing a device that can adapt to different patient needs, and by incorporating two side panels and two shoulder plates that can be fixed in position, limits the lateral head rotation range of the patient, and limits the upward movement of the patient's upper limb shoulder. Therefore, it can be used for patients with maxillofacial and cervical lesions who require restriction of head rotation and ipsilateral upper limb shoulder elevation.
