Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

Nasopharyngeal suctioning is a procedure to remove secretions from the upper part of the respiratory tract that the patient cannot clear independently. It helps maintain airway patency and prevents complications such as aspiration pneumonia.

Area of Science:

Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery
Biomaterials Science

Background:

Facial defects from cancer, congenital issues, or trauma can be addressed with prosthetics.
Nasal prostheses offer an effective alternative to surgery for restoring mid-facial defects due to the nose's limited mobility.

Observation:

A patient underwent partial rhinectomy due to squamous cell carcinoma of the nose.
A nasal prosthesis fabricated from polymethyl methacrylate resin was utilized for rehabilitation.

Findings:

The prosthesis successfully restored the patient's esthetic appearance.
A mechanical retention design using spectacle frames was employed, avoiding craniofacial implants.

Implications:

Non-surgical rehabilitation with custom prostheses is a viable option for nasal defects.
Polymethyl methacrylate offers a suitable material for life-like nasal prostheses.
Spectacle-retained designs provide an effective and less invasive retention method.
