Chapter 22, Problem 1CCS
35-Year-Old Female with Chest Trauma
Barbara Joley was in a major car accident. When EMS managed to free her from the wreckage, she was cyanotic and apneic (not breathing).

The emergency medical technician reported that when Barbara was found, her head was cocked at a peculiar angle and it looked like she had a fracture at the level of the C2 vertebra. The following questions refer to these observations.
1. How might the “peculiar" head position explain Barbara’s cessation of breathing?
