Care and Transport of Injured Participants with Potential Spine Injuries from Ice Rinks

Source

In this paper the safety issues involving the proper immobilization of the cervical spine and the transfer mechanisms necessary to secure an injured athlete prior to moving them off the ice are reviewed. It is recommended that the helmet be left on during this process to provide stability to the cervical spine. All medical teams which care for ice hockey athletes should follow and rehearse this technique.
