Contraindications

Tracheotomy Tubes
Tracheotomy Tubes
Tracheotomy Tubes
Tracoe Cuffless
Speaking valve
Complications: Intraoperative
Bleeding
2.8%*
Recurrent laryngeal nerve injury
Tracheoesophageal fistula
Pneumothorax: rare
False passage
*Kost et al 1994
Tracheotomy: Early
Complications
Bleeding
Minor common
Major tracheoinnominate fistula (<0.2%)*
Obstruction
of tube (2.5%)*
Dislodgement (1.4%)*
Pneumothorax (1 - 2.5%)*
Wound Infection
Late Complications
Tracheal
stenosis
Tracheal chondritis
Subglottis stenosis- high tracheotomy
Tracheomalacia
Tracheoesophageal fistula
Failure of stoma closure when decannulated
Overall

Late Complications/Stoma
Physiology of Tracheotomy
Neck
breathing
Bypass upper airway and nasal function
Loss of humidification/heat airflow
Dryness, thick secretions
Voicing possible with speaking valve
Loss of smell /reduced taste
Loss glottic closure function for cough
Physiology of Tracheotomy
Advantages
Respiration
Lower work of breathing (30%) c/w normal airway
Physiology of Tracheotomy
Respiration
increases turbulent airflow, secretions adhere inside tube
Disadvantages
Tube diameter and shape
Loss
Diminish
Dysphagia
Common
Troubleshooting Dislodgement
Causes
Clinical signs
Difficulty in ventilating patient
Increased airway pressure
Suction catheter obstructed
Non Ventilated Patient
Poor
cough
Sudden voice change
Stridor, SOB
Suction catheter blocked
Extend neck
Remove inner cannula
Use obturator to redirect tracheotomy
tube into lumen
If patient in distress and does not have
fixed obstruction above, pull out trach
tube
Ventilate with mask/intubate
Use flex bronchoscope or replace/OR
Troubleshooting Tube
Obstructed
Mucous
Troubleshooting: Bleeding
Bleeding around trach stoma
Decannulation
Goal is to ensure patient can tolerate
increased airway resistance/work of
breathing and secretion clearance
30% increase WOB transition from trach
breathing to upper airway breathing
Decannulation
Indication
Decannulation
Stable
clinical condition
Hemodynamic stability
Absence of fever, sepsis infection
Adequate

NG, aspiration
Laryngeal

Increase airway resistance not tolerated
Tracheotomy: Summary

Summary
Advantages/risks
Cricothyroidotomy
Prep
Cricothyroidotomy
Advantages
Quick c/w open trach
No laryngeal injury
Failure of intubation
attempts in emergency
situation
Disadvantages
Can cause laryngeal
injury
Must be sure of
landmarks
Small tube required
Cricothyroidotomy
