Tracheotomy By the late 19th century, some surgeons had become proficient in performing the tracheotomy procedure. The main instruments used were:
Tracheotomy Significant improvements to surgical instruments for tracheotomy include the direct suction tracheotomy tube invented by Josephine G. Fountain (RN); she was awarded patent no. 3039469 in 1962 for the direct suction tracheotomy tube, which improved the ways mucus could be cleared from the trachea and increased patient breathing and comfort.
Tracheotomy The direction of this dilational manoeuvre is from the inside of the tracheal lumen to the outside of the neck (In/Out) and therefore completely opposite to the Out/In of other traditional percutaneous tracheostomies. The cone is then separated from the cannula, which results in it being positioned in the trachea.
Tracheotomy But the main complication of this procedure is obstruction of the hole due to accumulation of mucus produced by respiratory normal flora, which in turn will lead to hypoxia and further complications due to reduced level of oxygen received by lungs.
Tracheotomy The etymology of the word "tracheotomy" comes from two Greek words: the root "tom-" (from Greek τομή "tomḗ") meaning "to cut", and the word "trachea" (from Greek τραχεία "tracheía"). The word "tracheostomy", including the root "stom-" (from Greek στόμα "stóma") meaning "mouth," refers to the making of a semi-permanent or permanent opening, and to the opening itself. Some sources offer different definitions of the above terms. Part of the ambiguity is due to the uncertainty of the intended permanence of the stoma at the time it is created.
