Atlanto-axial rotary subluxation (AARS) is rare but recognized as a significant cervical spine injury following a fall or physical impact on the head or neck in children aged 5-15 years.

Introduction: Effective pre-hospital care is critical for improving trauma outcomes, yet pre-hospital systems are underdeveloped in low-and middle-income countries (LMICs) like Nepal, where trauma-related deaths are rising. Community health responders (CHRs) have the potential to reduce time to post-injury care in rural settings, where other health infrastructure may be unavailable. This pilot study assessing the feasibility and preliminary impact of CHR based program in rural Nepal.
