What is tracheostomy?

  • A tracheostomy, also known as a tracheotomy, is a surgical technique that involves making an incision on the front of the neck and opening the trachea to create a direct airway.
  • The tube can, if required, be attached to an oxygen source and a ventilator, a mechanical breathing apparatus.
  • Although largely safe, tracheostomies do carry some risk. Certain issues are more likely to occur during or just after surgery.
  • When the tracheotomy is carried out as an emergency procedure, the likelihood of these issues significantly increases.
  • After tracheostomy, the median survival time was 21 months (range, 0-155 months).
  • After tracheostomy, the survival rate was 65% after one year and 45% after two years.
