THE ROLE of tracheostomy in the management of patients with acute upper-airway obstruction has changed considerably in the past few decades. Once the prime initial technique for relieving sudden airway embarrassment, tracheostomy is now only one of several methods available, each of which has specific advantages and disadvantages.

Chest Surgery Clinics of North America, 1996
Tracheostomy is a common procedure used by a wide variety of surgeons. Complications after tracheostomy have been used as a rationale for prolonging a translaryngeal intubation. Understanding the pathogenesis of tracheostomy complications combined with meticulous surgical and perioperative management avoids the majority of complications.

Tracheostomy tubes are placed for a variety of reasons, including failure to wean from mechanical ventilation, inability to protect the airway due to impaired mental status, inability to manage excessive secretions, and upper-airway obstruction. A tracheostomy tube is required in approximately 10% of patients receiving mechanical ventilation and allows

Tracheostomy and Mini-Tracheostomy
2009Percutaneous dilational tracheosto-my (PDT) is currently accepted as the standard technique for longer-term airway management in the critically ill patient in many intensive care units (ICUs). This chapter gives an overview of applied anatomy and techniques, answering the questions of timing, indications, complications, choice of tracheostomy tube and ...

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1994
Emergency physicians should be able to quickly evaluate and initiate therapy for tracheostomy tube obstruction, tracheal hemorrhage, interstitial air leading to pneumothorax, and infections throughout the lower respiratory tract. Familiarity with tracheal tubes and their function is a prerequisite to dealing with immediate distress in these patients ...

AbstractTracheostomy is a commonly performed surgical procedure in intensive care units (ICUs). Over the past three decades, there has been a substantial body of evidence to suggest percutaneous tracheostomy (PT) is at least as safe as surgical tracheostomy (ST) in the hands of trained clinicians.

Head & Neck Surgery, 1984
AbstractA technique designed to create a permanent, wide open, and stable tracheal stoma is based on two corresponding U‐shaped flaps: one from the anterior tracheal wall, the other from the skin in the suprasternal notch. The method described in this article has proved to be efficient, practical, well tolerated, and readily reversible.

The evolution of tracheostomy can be divided into five stages. The first and longest period (covering roughly 3,000 years from 1500 BC to 1500 AD) begins with references to incisions into the “wind pipe” in the Ebers Papyrus and the Rig Veda. However, Alexander the Great, Asclepiades, Aretaeus and Galen are all recorded as having used this operation ...
