This retrospective, descriptive study examined the wishes, concerns, and experiences of patients who had been placed in a halo brace to treat a cervical fracture. Thirty-eight subjects who had a halo brace applied during the past 8 years completed the questionnaire. Data obtained reflected physiologic as well as psychosocial needs of these patients. Responses were categorized based on nursing diagnoses. Results demonstrated the need for more specific information given to patients before discharge from the hospital to facilitate adjustment to the halo brace and activities of daily living.
