Presentation
Other and further objects of the present invention will become apparent from the following description, taken together with the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is an exploded view of the tracheotomy tube according to the present invention; FIG [google.com]
Six children with posterior tracheal wall disruptions are presented: three associated with tracheotomy, one bronchoscopy, and another during endotracheal intubation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Entire Body System

Turkish
CONCLUSIONS: Most common indications for ET are prolonged MV and coma in Turkish ICUs. EPT is the preferred procedure for ET and GWDF is the most common technique. Bronchoscopy and USG are rarely used as a guide. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Course
-
Severe Clinical Course
The need for tracheotomy seemed to lead to a longer hospital care and was associated with a more severe clinical course. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Microbiology
-
Staphylococcus Aureus
The most commonly isolated bacterium was Staphylococcus aureus, accounting for 17 (37%) isolates, followed by Haemophilus influenzae, accounting for another 10 (22%) isolates. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Treatment
An overall average of 5 treatments was required; a lesion volume decrease of more than 50% was achieved in all patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
BACKGROUND: Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is an uncommon thyroid malignancy with a poor prognosis. American Thyroid Association (ATA) guidelines acknowledge the complexity of airway management in these patients. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Outlook (Prognosis) Most people need 1 to 3 days to adapt to breathing through a tracheostomy tube. It will take some time to learn how to communicate with others. At first, it may be impossible for the person to talk or make sounds. [mountsinai.org]
Etiology
We review the etiology and management of this disorder. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Epidemiology
The aim of the present study was to search the epidemiology of ET procedures in Turkey. METHODS: A questionnaire which consists of 43 questions was sent by e-mail to 238 ICUs which were officially recognized by The Turkish Ministry of Health. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Conclusion: Bias in the data cannot be excluded, as these were not epidemiologic data and the documentation was found to be incomplete. [doi.org]
Pathophysiology
Previous reports have described the pathophysiology, presentation and management of tracheo-arterial fistula involving the innominate artery. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prevention
This case points out the need for prevention strategies, intraoperative vigilance, and quick intervention to prevent further patient injury any time the electrosurgical unit is used in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
