Tracheostomy Decannulation01:21

Tracheostomy Decannulation

2.5K
Tracheostomy decannulation is a significant milestone in the liberation of mechanically ventilated patients. Despite its importance, there is no universally accepted protocol for this procedure. This demands an evidence-based, individualized approach.
Description of the Procedure
Decannulation refers to the permanent removal of the tracheostomy tube, signaling the resolution of the condition that initially necessitated the tracheostomy. The process requires a well-coordinated interplay between...

Tracheostomy: Procedure and Tubes01:28

Tracheostomy: Procedure and Tubes

4.9K
A tracheostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening into the trachea, typically at the second or third cartilaginous ring level. This opening allows the insertion of a tracheostomy tube, which can replace an endotracheal tube, provide mechanical ventilation, bypass an upper airway obstruction, or remove accumulated tracheobronchial secretions.
Tracheostomy tubes can be made of semiflexible plastic (polyurethane or silicone), rigid plastic, or metal, and they come in...

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway01:29

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

5.0K
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.

Epistaxis01:30

Epistaxis

713
Epistaxis, or nosebleeds, occurs when small, swollen blood vessels in the nasal mucous membrane rupture. Typically, the anterior septum is the primary site of occurrence.
Etiology
Possible causes of this condition include high blood pressure, trauma, low humidity, upper respiratory tract infections, allergies, foreign bodies, nasal inhalation of corticosteroids or illicit drugs, excessive use of decongestant nasal sprays, facial or nasal surgery, anatomic malformation, tumors, or systemic...

Nose and Nasal Cavity01:24

Nose and Nasal Cavity

15.3K
The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...

Tracheostomy Care I: Pre-procedural Steps

1.8K
A tracheostomy is a surgical technique that involves making an incision in the neck to provide access to the trachea. It is frequently used in medical conditions such as airway obstruction and prolonged mechanical ventilation. Effective nursing management is crucial for the long-term success of a tracheostomy.
Required Equipment
The equipment necessary for tracheostomy care includes:

    Summary

    Open structure septorhinoplasty significantly improves patient satisfaction, with a 6.7% revision rate lower than literature averages. Complex cases were more likely to require revision surgery.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Otolaryngology
    • Rhinology

    Background:

    • Septorhinoplasty is a common procedure to correct nasal deformities and improve function.
    • Assessing patient outcomes and complication rates is crucial for surgical quality improvement.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate patient-reported outcomes and complications following open structure septorhinoplasty.
    • To identify factors influencing the need for revision surgery after septorhinoplasty.

    Main Methods:

    • Prospective review of 120 patients undergoing open structure septorhinoplasty by a single surgeon.
    • Patient satisfaction assessed using the Rhinoplasty Outcomes Evaluation (ROE) tool post-operatively.
    • Analysis of revision surgery rates and associated surgical factors.

    Main Results:

    • A significant improvement in mean post-operative ROE scores (19.5 to 68.4, p < 0.001).
    • Overall revision surgery rate of 6.7% (8/120 patients).
    • Higher revision rates observed in complex cases (p=0.03) and for nasal tip/augmentation procedures.

    Conclusions:

    • Open structure septorhinoplasty leads to significant patient satisfaction.
    • The observed revision rate is favorable compared to existing literature.
    • Pre-operative complexity and specific reconstructive elements (tip, augmentation) correlate with increased revision risk.
