abstract="Roughly 2,000 U.S. children experience spinal column injuries annually. However, thousands more present to emergency departments with mechanisms of injury that could injure their spine. When children can follow commands and understand questions, performing a careful and accurate spine assessment may eliminate the need for unnecessary spine immobilization. When a spine injury is suspected, proper pediatric immobilization requires careful control of the spine's weight centers and proper padding to ensure the spine remains in a neutral position.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
