PURPOSE & OBJECTIVES. The purpose of Tracheostomy Care is to present an overview of the nursing care of patients who have. tracheostomies, to provide an update on guidelines for suctioning and to suggest preventive strategies to lower. the risk of complications due to the presence of tracheostomy tubes.
A tracheostomy is a surgical procedure to cut an opening into the trachea (windpipe) so that a tube can be inserted into the opening to assist breathing. A tracheostomy may be temporary or permanent, depending on the reason for its use. For example, if the tracheostomy tube is inserted to bypass a trachea that is blocked by blood or swelling, it will be removed once regular breathing is once again possible.
