Background:
In the early treatment of critical patients, tracheotomy is often performed to improve ventilation. Clinical practices usually start respiratory training after the artificial airway is removed. It is still controversial whether respiratory training during tube occlusion has effects on patients' ventilation potential and tube occlusion time. Therefore, this study used Meta-analysis to evaluate the effects of respiratory training on patients' ventilation potential and tube occlusion time during tracheotomy in patients with tube occlusion, so as to provide evidence for rehabilitation treatment.
Methods:
Wanfang, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, the Chongqing VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database, PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched through the computer and the randomized controlled trials of respiratory training on ventilation potential and extubation time in patients experiencing tracheotomy were collected as well. The searching time is limited to October 2021. The language restrictions are Chinese and English. Meta-analysis is performed by using RevMan5.4.
Results:
The results of this meta-analysis will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal for publication.
Conclusion:
This study will provide the latest evidence for the rehabilitation training of patients who underwent tracheotomy.

Tracheostomy Decannulation
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...
Endotracheal Tube Extubation
Procedure
Extubation removes the endotracheal tube (ETT) from the patient on mechanical ventilation. It requires a well-coordinated, multidisciplinary approach involving physicians, nurses, respiratory therapists, and other healthcare professionals....
Endotracheal Intubation I: Procedure
The ET tube comprises various components, including a standard adaptor to attach a bag-valve-mask (BVM) or ventilator, a cuff, a pilot balloon, and radiopaque markings along its length to measure the insertion distance. The tube sizes...
Oxygen Delivering System III: Tracheostomy and T-piece
Tracheostomy
A tracheostomy is a surgically created opening (stoma) in the anterior part of the trachea. It is used to establish a patient airway, bypass an upper airway obstruction, simplify the removal of secretions, permit long-term...
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,...
