Area of Science:

  • Medical procedures
  • Patient safety
  • Surgical outcomes

Context:

  • Tracheotomy is a critical surgical procedure with potential risks.
  • Airway obstruction and canal collapse are serious complications post-tracheotomy.
  • Effective patient assessment and management are crucial for preventing mortality.

Purpose:

  • To introduce and evaluate a security assortment method for patients after tracheotomy.
  • To identify strategies for preventing asphyxia deaths related to airway obstruction or canal collapse.
  • To classify patients based on risk factors following tracheotomy.

Summary:

  • A study involving 346 tracheotomy patients classified them into secure, dangerous, and relatively dangerous groups based on airway obstruction, mental health, age, and self-preservation capacity.

  • The implementation of tailored operational therapy and nursing care for each group prevented asphyxia deaths.
  • Results showed 160 secure, 17 dangerous (12 permanent, 5 temporary), and 169 relatively dangerous cases.

    • Impact:

    • The security assortment method is significant in reducing the asphyxia death rate after tracheotomy.
    • This approach enhances patient safety and improves the overall prognosis for individuals requiring tracheotomy.
    • The findings provide a framework for optimizing post-tracheotomy care and risk management.
