ABSTRACT:
A cervical support has an inherently stable support body of elastic foam material, provided with a covering of textile material, the free ends of which body overlap each other at the rear in a nape support region of the cervical support and can be detachably connected to each other. The nape support region is of greater height than a front, chin support region of the cervical support. For improved fit against the patient's body, and the relief of pressure thereagainst, the nape support region follows a path which is substantially partially circular or partially elliptical, and merges into jaw support regions which extend symmetrically and in mirror image relationship with respect to an imaginary longitudinal axis connecting the centers of the nape support region and the chin support region. Each jaw support region is of flat S-shape, which at a certain distance from the chin support region, is bowed towards the longitudinal axis.
