Measure	Time frame
Goal of the study is, to evaluate two interventions: (i) the change of spinal canal’s space during two kinds of airway management strategies (laryngoscopy and intubation, laryngeal tube insertion) in the presence of unstable upper cervical spine injury, and (ii) the change of spinal canal’s space during application of a cervical collar in the presence of unstable upper cervical spine injury.	—
