DTTC Disposable Tracheostomy Tube Cuffed

A tracheostomy tube is a surgically performed incision or opening in the neck leading to the trachea that creates an artificial airway, where a tube is inserted. This tube is called a tracheostomy tube and is used to alleviate breathing problems caused by in an obstruction in the upper airways. A tracheostomy tube helps people to breathe, when they are unable to do it naturally through the nose and mouth. The surgery procedure to insert a tube in the opening of the neck is called a tracheotomy. Usually, it is performed in extremely critical situations. Most often, a the procedure is done in a hospital operating room, but some emergency situations require an opening in the neck to be created immediately to save a life, such as at the scene of a car accident. Most tracheostomy procedures are performed quickly and on very short notice. An artificial opening is needed when a person cannot breathe on their own, because the windpipes are obstructed by a foreign object, a swelling in the neck, a tumor or the muscles in the throat is paralyzed. Any obstruction in the airways will prevent oxygen from reaching the lungs, and it will prevent a person from coughing. Coughing is a natural reflex that protects the lungs by getting rid of bacteria and mucous from the airways. A tracheostomy is used when a patient has difficulty swallowing due to a medical condition like a stroke. Some people who are born with a congenital abnormality of the trachea may need a tube to help them eat, breathe and speak. Other medical conditions that require the use of a tube are people who have thyroid or laryngeal cancer. A tracheostomy can be temporary or permanent. Tracheotomy is a relatively simple and safe procedure, but complications do occur. Bleeding, infections and complications from anesthesia may happen as a result of a tracheostomy. In the hospital, doctors will monitor the patient's after care. Some patients will still need a tracheostomy after they are release from the hospital. Nurses and doctors on staff will instruct the family members and caregivers on the proper procedures for long-term care of a patient. Caring for a patient with a tracheostomy involves around-the-clock care, which can be draining on family members. They may need the services of a home caregiver to ease the stress of taken care of a sick patient. The care of a patient with a tracheotomy tube in the home is not the same as in the hospital. A hospital is equipped will all the necessary equipment for the care of a patient. To effectively care for a patient with a tracheotomy tube and mechanical ventilation, family members may need to purchase homecare medical supplies from a good medical supply store. Before leaving the hospital, the hospital staff will provide a recommended checklist of home medical products. This list can be very extensive, but the homecare medical supplies are needed to make a smooth transition from hospital care to quality care at home.
