A tracheostomy is usually done for one of several reasons: to bypass an obstructed upper airway (an object obstructing the upper
airway will prevent oxygen from the mouth to reach the lungs); to clean and remove secretions from the airway; prolonged
mechanical ventilation (breathing machine); and. A tracheostomy is a surgically created hole (stoma) in your windpipe (trachea)
that provides an alternative airway for breathing. A tracheostomy tube is inserted through the hole and secured in place with a
strap around your neck. A tracheostomy is a surgical procedure that involves making a cut in the trachea (windpipe) and inserting
a tube into the opening. A tracheostomy may be temporary or permanent, depending on the reason for its use. Certain groups,
including babies, smokers and the elderly, are more vulnerable to complications.
Tracheotomy or tracheostomy, is a surgical procedure which consists of making an incision (cut) on the anterior aspect (front) of
the neck and opening a direct airway through an incision in the trachea (windpipe). The resulting stoma (hole) can serve
independently as an airway or as a site for a tracheal tube or tracheostomy tube[1] to be inserted; this tube allows a person to
breathe without the use of the nose or mouth.
