OBJECTIVES: Many people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis develop cervical muscle weakness, often managed with cervical collars. Finding supportive and comfortable collars can be challenging. This study aimed to evaluate satisfaction with various collars and their impact on activities of daily living.
DESIGN: This electronic survey study collected demographic information, clinical status, and participant experiences with commonly used cervical collars.
RESULTS: Thirty-four participants (33 with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, 1 with primary lateral sclerosis) completed the survey, with 79% reporting neck weakness and 38% experiencing neck pain. Among those who tried cervical collars (65%), many had tried multiple options. The mean satisfaction across all collar types was 5.03 (SD = 2.92) out of 10.
CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest current collars do not fully meet the needs of people living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, emphasizing the importance of improved treatment options. Future research should explore innovative technologies to improve cervical support, function, and quality of life.
