Here’s some news about the latest updates on
clinicalskills.net!
All the procedures on Tracheostomy Care have been reviewed
by the authors and updated. These procedures are:
Care of the individual with a tracheostomy: stoma care and
cuff management
Care of the individual with a tracheostomy: suctioning
Care of the individual with a tracheostomy: humidification
and oxygen therapy
Care of the individual with a tracheostomy: changing the
inner tube
There have been few changes to the content of the procedures
as a result of the update, but these procedures now reference the publication
from the National Confidential Enquiry into Patient Outcome and Death, “On
the Right Trach?” (NCEPOD, 2014).
