Abstract:
Speech is an essential component of quality of life for patients treated with long term mechanical ventilation. Therefore trying to improve phonation should always sought by physicians treating these patients. We review the different tools and techniques available in order to restore speech for patients with home mechanical ventilation whether ventilation is done continuously or not.

Oxygen Delivering System II: Venturi Mask and Transtracheal Oxygen
Venturi Mask
The Venturi mask, named after the Venturi effect, is designed to deliver precise oxygen concentrations. It consists of a large tube with an oxygen inlet that narrows down, causing a pressure drop that pulls air in through adjustable side ports. The mask is a lightweight,...
