Tracheostomy: A Multi-Professional Handbook is written by a
multidisciplinary team of authors to give a unique perspective of
this increasingly widely-used technique and which will support
research-based care and management and deliver patient-focused
rehabilitation. It covers everything from the basics of
tracheostomy, through the indications for tracheostomy and all
aspects of pre-, peri- and postoperative care of the patient. The
latter forms a large part of the book, and focuses on issues of
importance to a broad spectrum of healthcare professionals, such as
how patient communication is affected by the technique and how
optimum wound care during tracheostomy is best achieved, as well as
the practical aspects and problems encountered with speech,
swallowing and general rehabilitation, nutrition, weaning and
decannulation, long-term tracheostomy, tracheostomy in children,
and an important chapter on emergency tracheostomy techniques.
