Tracheostomy

Retrospective evaluation of postoperative nasotracheal tubes for oxygen supplementation in dogs following surgery for brachycephalic syndrome: 36 cases (2003–2007)

“…These patients require intensive care in the peri‐ and postoperative period. Current recommendations for supplemental oxygen treatment in moderately to severely dyspneic patients include oxygen delivery by intranasal tube, oxygen cage, oxygen hood, temporary tracheostomy, or orotracheal intubation 1,4,8,10–12 . In addition, corticosteroid treatment to reduce oropharyngeal swelling, sedation to relieve anxiety associated with respiratory distress, and cooling of hyperthermic patients may be beneficial 1,8,10 …”

“…In the immediate postoperative period, respiratory distress is often aggravated by oropharyngeal swelling from surgical manipulation. Current recommendations for this situation include intubation for as long as possible after anesthesia, supplemental oxygen therapy, reintubation, or temporary tracheostomy if required and intensive postoperative monitoring 1,12,13 . The postoperative period can be very demanding for the technical staff in the intensive care unit as patients may have a persistent airway obstruction are at risk of clinical deterioration with the potential need of orotracheal intubation or they are already intubated or have a tracheostomy tube in place, both of which require intensive care.…”

For these patients, a high incidence of complications and mortality has been documented 1,12,14,15 …”

Nursing critically ill patients in the intensive care unit

“…Therefore, these types of tubes should be replaced every 24 hours after a period of preoxygenation (Fudge 2009). …”
