Area of Science:

  • Medical procedures
  • Intensive care medicine
  • Emergency medicine

Background:

  • Minitracheotomy is frequently employed in intensive care units for tracheobronchial suctioning, especially post-abdominal and thoracic surgery.
  • It is also utilized in emergency scenarios to address upper airway obstructions.

Observation:

  • Percutaneous minitracheotomy, a form of coniotomy, requires safe execution.
  • The Seldinger technique can aid in tube insertion.
  • Tube placement confirmation is achieved by aspirating air.

Findings:

  • A case involving bleeding and intralaryngeal hematoma during the procedure was observed.
  • Despite potential complications, minitracheotomy is generally considered a valuable and safe therapeutic option.
