Miami Occian Collar Back Adult

The Occian™ Back is designed exclusively for the specialized needs of the multi-system trauma patient in the ICU. Universally sized, specifically engineered and designed with advanced, IntuiTech™ pressure-relieving memory foam, the Occian Back helps caregivers manage c-spine patients who are at high risk of occipital breakdown. By simply replacing the back piece of a Miami J® Collar with the Occian Back, medical professionals can improve outcomes while providing patients with an “ocean” of comfort and pressure distribution. Clinical evaluations in leading trauma centers demonstrate that this product virtually eliminates occipital breakdown without sacrificing c-spine stability.

Miami Occian Collar Back Adult Benefits

• Candidates for specialty beds/surfaces
• Patients who are not awake and alert within 24-48 hours after admission

There is a consistent thread of preventative indications for the Occian Back. A flat-back collar causes a large pressure spike on the patient’s occiput. Ossur’s Miami J® collar alone reduces the pressure significantly. But, use the Occian Back and you add an even greater level of comfort.
