You have two patients who were involved in a motor vehicle crash when

their SUV struck a tree-one with neck and back pain, and the other with

a deformed left femur. The patient with the deformed femur states that he

around his neck. What is the MOST appropriate and practical method of

securing these patients and placing them into the ambulance?
