Tracheostomy<\/h1>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″ locked=”off”]<\/p>\n

A tracheostomy is a frequently performed, very effective surgery to ventilate patients or in the event of a mechanical breathing disability in the larynx area.<\/strong><\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ _builder_version=”4.4.4″ max_width=”900px” custom_padding=”10px||||false|false” locked=”off”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.0.11″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″ locked=”off”]In this intervention, an artificial connection is established below the larynx, from the front side of the throat to the trachea. A curved tube (tracheal cannula) is inserted into the tracheostomy hole, and is directed toward the trachea and the lungs. The trachea is sealed by means of a cuff that is inflated against the larynx it. It thus offers protection from descending saliva and prevents air from escaping through the mouth or nose during respiration.[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″ background_color=”#f4f4f4″ custom_padding=”15px|20px|15px|30px|false|false” border_width_left=”3px” border_color_left=”rgba(0,0,0,0.4)” locked=”off”]<\/p>\n

A tracheostomy should not be confused with a cricothyrotomy<\/strong> which is performed in emergency situations on patients with an acute risk of suffocation.<\/p>\n

In some situations it may be necessary to administer inhalable drugs to support the pulmonary function or to address the consistency of secretions. Several options are available for an optimal inhalation through the tracheostomy. Special tracheostomy masks or spacers including a tracheal cannula cap optimise the effect of the medication and prevent the leaking of inhalants (e.g., RC-Chamber\u00ae for tracheostomised patients<\/a>).[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.4.2″ max_width=”900px” custom_margin=”30px||30px||false|false” custom_padding=”30px||30px||false|false” border_width_top=”1px” border_color_top=”rgba(0,0,0,0.25)” border_width_bottom=”1px” border_color_bottom=”rgba(0,0,0,0.25)” locked=”off”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.0.6″][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.cegla.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/rc-chamber-tracheo_450.jpg” alt=”Inhalierhilfe RC-Chamber\u00ae” title_text=”Die Inhalierhilfe RC-Chamber\u00ae vereinfacht die Anwendung von Dosieraerosolen ” url=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9saW5rX3VybF9wYWdlIiwic2V0dGluZ3MiOnsicG9zdF9pZCI6IjQxMjAifX0=@” _builder_version=”4.4.2″ _dynamic_attributes=”url” width=”85%” module_alignment=”center”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.0.11″ custom_padding=”1vw||||false|false”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.8.1″ text_font=”||||||||” text_text_color=”#164194″ header_2_text_align=”left” header_2_font_size=”32px” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”||5px||false|false” header_2_font_size_tablet=”36px” header_2_font_size_phone=”32px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” text_text_align=”center” locked=”off”]<\/p>\n
