Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The correct sequence for using a vest-type short spine immobilization device is to secure the torso first, then the head, and then secure the legs. Therefore, the EMTs are correctly using the device if the head is secured to the device after the torso has been secured, which is the case in option D. Applying the cervical collar before securing the torso (option A) or securing the head before the torso (option B) is incorrect use of the device. Option C is also incorrect, as the head should not be secured to the device immediately after the cervical collar is placed, as the torso must be secured first.
