Understanding Tracheostomy: A Pathway to Better Breathing
A tracheostomy is a surgical opening created through the front of the neck and into the windpipe (trachea). A tube is placed into this opening to provide a clear and secure airway, making it easier to breathe. It is a necessary intervention for patients who:
- Require long-term connection to a mechanical ventilator.
- Have a blockage in their upper airway.
- Are unable to effectively clear secretions from their lungs due to weakness.
The need for such advanced care is growing, with studies showing a significant increase in the use of tracheostomies for patients requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation after critical illnesses. Our program is designed to manage this high level of medical complexity with expert precision.
Our Tracheostomy Care Program Is Designed To:
- Maintain a clear and patent airway at all times, ensuring safe and easy breathing.
- Prevent serious complications like respiratory infections, blockages, and skin breakdown.
- Provide a structured, multi-disciplinary approach to weaning from the tracheostomy when medically appropriate.
- Improve the patient's quality of life by facilitating communication and comfort.
Our Comprehensive Approach to Tracheostomy Care
Our care is delivered by nurses and therapists with specialized training in respiratory and critical care.
Ensuring a Clear and Safe Airway (Suctioning)
This is the most critical daily task. We use a sterile technique to gently suction mucus and secretions from the airway, preventing blockages and reducing the risk of pneumonia.
Preventing Infection (Site & Cannula Care)
Meticulous hygiene is key. Our team provides daily cleaning of the stoma (the opening in the neck), changes the sterile dressing, and cleans or replaces the inner cannula of the tube to minimize the risk of infection.
The Path to Independence (Weaning & Decannulation)
For many patients, the ultimate goal is to breathe independently again. This process, called weaning, is a collaborative effort.
Restoring Communication (Speaking Valves)
Being unable to speak is one of the most frustrating aspects of having a tracheostomy.
- Our Speech-Language Pathologists are experts in using one-way speaking valves (like a Passy-Muir Valve). When medically appropriate, this device can be attached to the tracheostomy tube, allowing air to pass over the vocal cords and enabling your loved one to speak.
