Abstract
A collapsible cervical collar is disclosed with an elongated neck encircling band and a chin support brace. The chin support brace has first and second ends and a concave edge separating the first and second ends. A hinge connects the elongated neck encircling band to the chin support brace. The hinge enables the chin support brace to rotate more than 180 degrees relative to the elongated neck encircling band from an inoperable or flat condition to an operable three-dimensional condition.
