Abstract

A base headboard (115) for supporting the back of an injured person's head has an elongated slot (205) with teeth racks (605, 610) disposed on either side of the person's head and straps (175, 180, 185) for attaching to a spine board (102). Two side head blocks (105, 110) are removably attached to the headboard using plunger-type locks (120, 125) engaging an elongated slot (205) through a separate elongated slot (210) in the corresponding head block. Advantageously, a head block (105, 110) may be adjusted by moving the lock (120, 125) along each slot (205, 210) in the headboard and head block; a head block also may be rotated around its lock. Head pads (160, 165, 170) and straps (130, 145), and pads (2180, 2221) and straps (2160, 2234) for cervical collars (2110, 2210) may be replaceable and packaged in a kit, thereby allowing the head blocks (105, 110) and headboard (115) to be reused indefinitely, reducing cleaning costs and minimizing exposure to pathogens. The kit also reduces material waste as compared to having all disposable components without any durable components (i.e. head immobilizers).
