Early Tracheostomy in Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation Due to Severe Head Injury to Prevent Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP)

Indonesian Journal of Anesthesiology and Reanimation (IJAR), 2022
Introduction: Early tracheostomy needs to be considered if a ventilator is expected to be used for an extended period of time. Early tracheostomy is recommended since it improves respiratory function, reduces the risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia ...

A Rare Early Complication of Tracheostomy

Oman Medical Journal, 2011
A polytrauma patient on ventilator was admitted to ICU with open tracheostomy, GCS 8/15 and unequal pupils. After 10 days, he was weaned from the ventilator. The patient had respiratory problems i.e. expiratory stridor, shortness of breath, dysphonia and dyspnea on closing tracheostomy. It was diagnosed as a case of asthma, and the patient responded to
