ABSTRACT

La obesidad es un problema de salud que ha presentado un aumento preocupante en Chile y el mundo, en las últimas décadas. Esta condición se asocia a múltiples comorbi-lidades, entre ellas, afecciones respiratorias. La traqueostomía es un procedimiento quirúrgico que puede resultar desafiante en este tipo de pacientes, debido a las alteraciones que la obesidad genera en la anatomía cervical, asociándose a mayor morbimortalidad. Requiere una buena planificación preoperatoria. Se presenta el caso de un paciente con antecedente de súper-súper obesidad, con un índice de masa corporal de 78 kg m2, que requirió la realización de una traqueostomía quirúrgica. Se describe el manejo realizado, junto a las consideraciones especiales aplicadas al caso: se realizó lipectomía cervical, se utilizó instrumental quirúrgico de mayor longitud, suturas al plano subcutáneo para facilitar visualización intraoperatoria, suturas de la piel a la tráquea previo a la apertura de la vía aérea, uso de cánula de traqueostomía extra larga. El paciente presentó como complicación postoperatoria un granuloma periostomal que fue tratado y, finalmente, fue decanulado previo su alta hospitalaria. Se presenta una revisión en la literatura pertinente al caso.


Obesity is a health problem that has shown a worrisome increase in Chile and the world in recent decades. This condition is associated to multiple comorbidities, including respiratory disorders. A tracheostomy is a surgical procedure that can be challenging in this type of patient due to the variations that obesity generates in the cervical anatomy, which is associated to greater morbidity and mortality. Due to this, it requires good preoperative planning. We present the case of a male patient with a history of super-super obesity, with a body mass index (BMI) of 78 kg m2, who required surgical tracheostomy; the management is described with the special considerations applied to the case: cervical lipectomy was performed, longer surgical instruments were used, sutures to the subcutaneous plane were placed to facilitate intraoperative visualization, skin sutures to the trachea were placed prior to opening the airway, use of extra-large tracheostomy cannula (XL). The patient presented a peristomal granuloma as a postoperative complication which was treated, and he was decannulated prior to hospital discharge. A review of the literature relevant to the case is presented.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To discuss the complications and postoperative outcomes of tracheotomy with different etiology in children. Methods: One hundred and eighty-six patients underwent tracheotomy were retrospectively analyzed from January 2016 to December 2018,including 117 males and 69 females. The children aged from 4 days to 14 years (median age 31.5months). One case was operated under local anesthesia in emergency room, 2 cases were operated under local anesthesia in pediatric intensive care unit, the rest 183 cases were operated under general anesthesia in operation room. The 186 children were divided into four groups according to their direct causes of tracheotomy. Group A(90 cases): Neuromuscular disease and severe infection,Group B(26 cases): Head and neck tumor,Group C(57 cases): Congenital malformation and upper airway obstruction,Group D(13 cases): Accidental injury. The basic information, surgical complications and postoperative outcomes were recorded and analyzed. All patients were followed up by clinic or by telephone. Spss 19.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results: One hundred and eighty-six patients were followed up for one to four years. 33 children lost the follow-up and 46 died. Among the 186 patients, 23 cases had emergency tracheotomy (12.4%). The rate of emergency tracheotomy in group C(16 cases, 28.1%) was higher than that in the other three groups(χ2=28.08,P<0.05). The average age of patients and hospital stay in group C were significantly lower than those in the other three groups (F=33.76,P<0.05; F=14.95,P<0.05). Incision bleeding occurred in 11 cases, Subcutaneous emphysema occurred in 6 cases and accidental decannulation occurred in 10 cases (4 cases within 2 weeks and 6 after 2 weeks). Six patients underwent tracheocutaneous fistula closure operation after decannulation and the stoma healed spontaneously in other extubated children. Two patients underwent secondary tracheotomy due to accidental decannulation, and three patients underwent secondary tracheotomy for dyspnea after decannulation. In 107 cases of survival children, decannulation was successful in 65 patients and failed in 42 patients. The average duration of wearing tracheal tube was 8.8 months. The decannulation rates in the four groups were 55.6%, 45%, 69% and 77.8%, with no significant difference. Conclusions: The complications after tracheotomy in children are rare, and no severe complications occurred in long-term tracheotomy patients. The duration of wearing tracheal tube is related to the treatment of their primary disease.

ABSTRACT

Resumen Introducción: actualmente los profesionales de la salud se enfrentan al manejo de las vías aéreas artificiales en grupos pediátricos, esto requiere de cuidados delicados y mucha atención para detectar, establecer y manejar situaciones apremiantes; por esta razón, existe un mayor riesgo de aparición de infecciones bacterianas traqueopulmonares. El objetivo del estudio fue analizar la caracterización de las infecciones en pacientes pediátricos portadores de cánula de traqueotomía en las diferentes publicaciones científicas. Materiales y métodos: se realizó una revisión sistemática mediante la búsqueda de la literatura existente entre los años 2015-2020 en las bases de datos Elsevier, PubMed, Google Académico y SciELO, teniendo en cuenta los criterios de inclusión artículos en idioma inglés, español y población de edad entre los 0-15 años con infección de cánula de traqueotomía en los años 2015-2020. Resultados: de 258 artículos distribuidos en las bases de datos, se seleccionaron 21 artículos que cumplían con los criterios de inclusión. Conclusiones: a pesar de que en la actualidad existan criterios clínicos, factores de riesgo y pruebas de laboratorio asociados a infecciones de la cánula postraqueotomía en pacientes pediátricos, se requiere mayor investigación para definir las guías clínicas de manejo en la toma de decisiones médicas. Asimismo, se consideró como limitación importante la cantidad de literatura existente con respecto al tema.


Abstract Introduction: Currently, health professionals face the management of artificial airways in pediatric groups, this requires delicate care and a lot of attention to detect, establish and manage pressing situations, which is why there is a greater risk of tracheo-pulmonary bacterial infections. The objective was to analyze the characterization of infections in pediatric patients with tracheostomy tubes in the different scientific publications. Method: A systematic review of the literature was carried out between the years 2015-2020 in Elsevier, PubMed, Google Academic and SciELO databases, taking into account the inclusion criteria of the population aged 0-15 years in the years 2015-2020. The amount of existing literature on the subject was considered an important limitation. Results: From 258 articles distributed in the databases, 21 articles were selected that met the inclusion criteria. Conclusions: Although there are currently clinical criteria, risk factors and laboratory tests associated with infections of the post-tracheotomy tube in pediatric patients, further research is required to define clinical guidelines for management in medical decision-making.

ABSTRACT

Post-intubation tracheal stenosis was a late time complication after tracheotomy but the happening of dyspnea was unusual. Diagnosing tracheal stenosis after incubation, and figuring out the location and causes of the stenosis were important. Treatment of post-incubation tracheal stenosis relied on accurate diagnosis of the type of tracheal stenosis. Computed tomography (CT) and laryngoscope could be used for detecting the stenosis but not enough. Two patients who were already under the urgent tracheotomy over 1 year were reported. However apnea was found on these two patients for a long time after traheotomy. Obviously laryngeal obstruction appeared. CT virtual bronchoscope and laryngoscope examination showed that the cannula was obstructed and plenty of granulation tissue blocked the orificium. But the exact location of the cannula and the adjacent relationship of the tissue around the cannula was equivocal. Mimics 10.01 software was used to analyze the data of the CT scan and found that a pseudo cavity was formed by granulation tissue which partly blocked the cannula in 1 case; granulation tissue occupation and scar formation in the trachea were the reason of tracheal stenosis but not the collapse of the cartilage in case 2. The purpose of this report is to discuss the cause of dyspnea after emergency tracheotomy, its diagnostic method and their management. CT virtual bronchoscope and laryngoscope should be used as a regular examination after tracheotomy to clarify the location of cannula and avoid the failure of airway opening caused by the dislocation of cannula and the complication. Trachea tissue should be protected properly during and after the tracheotomy which might decline the rate of the tissue remodeling, tracheal stenosis and dyspnea after surgery. The clinical use of Mimics 10.01 made it possible to observe morphology more directly by invasive examination and provided a significant clue to make the operation plan so that it should be used widely. Meanwhile, the method to put the cannula into its right way under the guidance of rigid endoscope and the excision of granulation tissue by semiconductor laser should become one of the best treatments of this disease. Following the method above, laryngeal obstruction was relieved after the surgery. Postoperative follow-up lasted for 1 year and recurrence was not found.

ABSTRACT

Mujer de 68 años que ingresa en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos por shock séptico. En el posoperatorio la paciente se mantiene inestable y se decide realizar traqueotomía percutánea (TP) por intubación prolongada. Al inicio la paciente presenta un enfisema subcutáneo que progresa hasta convertirse en masivo. Se realiza TC torácico donde se observa pérdida de la morfología habitual de la pared posterior traqueal con solución de continuidad. Tras revisión mediante traqueobroncoscopía se decide colocar cánula de traqueotomía larga para dejar la lesión proximal al neumotaponamiento y así evitar la fuga de aire. Desde la colocación de la nueva cánula, la paciente presenta una disminución progresiva del enfisema hasta su total resolución. La TP es un procedimiento seguro que se realiza con mucha frecuencia en los servicios de medicina intensiva, sin embargo, no está exenta de complicaciones. En la revisión de Powell y cols describen las complicaciones de la TP destacando la inserción peritraqueal, la hemorragia, las infecciones de la herida, el neumotórax y la muerte. El rango de complicaciones en la literatura oscila entre 3% y 18%. Además, no se encuentran diferencias significativas respecto a las complicaciones entre la TP y la técnica abierta.


A 68-year-old woman who enter in intensive care unit due to septic shock. In the postoperative period, the patient remained unstable and decided to perform a percutaneous tracheotomy (PT) because prolonged intubation. In the first, the patient presents subcutaneous emphysema that progresses until becoming massive. Thoracic CT is performed where loss of the usual morphology of the posterior tracheal wall with continuity solution is observed. After revision by means of tracheobroncoscopia, it is decided to place a long tracheotomy cannula to leave the lesion proximal to pneumotaponamiento and thus avoid air leakage. From the placement of the new cannula, the patient presents a progressive decrease of the emphysema until its total resolution. PD is a safe procedure that is performed very frequently in the Intensive Care Services3, however, it is not without its complications. The review of Powell et al4 describes the complications of PT emphasizing peritracheal insertion, hemorrhage, wound infections, pneumothorax, and death. The range of complications in the literature ranges from 3 to 18% 5. In addition, no significant differences were found regarding the complications between the TP and the open technique.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Tracheotomy is one of the most frequent surgical procedures performed in critically ill patients hospitalized at intensive care units. The ideal timing for a tracheotomy is still controversial, despite decades of experience. OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of performing early tracheotomies in critically ill patients on duration of mechanical ventilation, intensive care unit stay, overall hospital stay, morbidity, and mortality. METHODS: Retrospective and observational study of cases subjected to elective tracheotomy at one of the intensive care units of this hospital during five consecutive years. The patients were stratified into two groups: early tracheotomy group (tracheotomy performed from day one up to and including day seven of mechanical ventilation) and late tracheotomy group (tracheotomy performed after day seven). The outcomes of the groups were compared. RESULTS: In the early tracheotomy group, there was a statistically significant reduction in duration of mechanical ventilation (6 days vs. 19 days; p < 0.001), duration of intensive care unit stay (10 days vs. 28 days; p = 0.001), and incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (1 case vs. 44 cases; p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: Early tracheotomy has a significant positive impact on critically ill patients hospitalized at this intensive care unit. These results support the tendency to balance the risk-benefit analysis in favor of early tracheotomy. .


INTRODUÇÃO: A traqueotomia é um dos procedimentos cirúrgicos mais frequentes em doentes críticos internados em unidades de terapia intensiva. O seu timing ideal é ainda, apesar de décadas de experiência, uma questão controversa. OBJETIVOS: Determinar o impacto da realização de traqueotomias precoces em doentes críticos na duração da ventilação mecânica, do internamento na unidade de terapia intensiva, do internamento hospitalar, e mortalidade e morbidade. MÉTODO: Estudo observacional retrospectivo dos casos submetidos à traqueotomia eletiva em uma das unidades de terapia intensiva do nosso hospital durante 5 anos consecutivos. Os doentes foram divididos em dois grupos, tendo sido submetidos a traqueotomias precoces (até o 7º dia de ventilação mecânica, inclusive) ou tardias (após o 7º dia de ventilação mecânica), e os resultados foram comparados. RESULTADOS: Nos doentes submetidos a uma traqueotomia precoce verificou-se uma redução estatisticamente significativa na duração da ventilação mecânica (6 dias vs. 19 dias; p < 0,001), na duração do internamento na unidade de terapia intensiva (10 dias vs. 28 dias; p = 0,001) e na incidência de pneumonia associada ao ventilador (1 caso vs. 44 casos; p = 0,001). CONCLUSÃO: A traqueotomia precoce tem um impacto positivo estatisticamente significativo nos doentes críticos. Os resultados suportam a tendência de equilibrar o risco-benefício em favor da traqueotomia precoce. .

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La traqueostomía está indicada para prevenir el daño laríngeo producido por intubaciones prolongadas, mejorar la higiene traqueal, disminuir el espacio muerto y minimizar la estadía en Unidades de Pacientes Críticos (UPC). La técnica más utilizada es la abierta, que permite un adecuado control de la anatomía y de la hemostasia. Actualmente, en las UPC es cada vez más habitual, la realización de la técnica percutánea. Varios trabajos indican que es una técnica rápida y con menos complicaciones, pero aún existe controversia. Objetivo: Comparar a través de un estudio prospectivo, ambas técnicas en cuanto a duración del procedimiento y complicaciones peri y postoperatorias. Material y método: De un total de 91 pacientes, se seleccionaron 50 que no tenían contraindicación para realizar técnica percutánea. En esos 50 pacientes se realizó en forma aleatoria, técnica abierta y técnica percutánea obteniendo 2 grupos de 25 pacientes (Grupos AyP). Todos los pacientes fueron intervenidos en pabellón y bajo anestesia general. Resultados: La duración total del procedimiento incluida la anestesia fue de 65,8 min y de 59,2 min y la duración de la cirugía fue de 40,4 min y 32,2 min, respectivamente. Las complicaciones perioperatorias fueron: grupo A 16 por ciento (desaturación y sangrado lo más frecuente) y Grupo P: 40 por ciento (desaturación y pérdida de vía aérea lo más frecuente) y las posoperatorias de 8 por ciento y 12 por ciento (sangrado e infección lo más frecuente en ambos grupos) en los grupos AyP, respectivamente. Conclusión: Al comparar ambas técnicas, no hubo en nuestras manos diferencias estadísticamente significativas en cuanto al número de complicaciones ni en cuanto a la duración del procedimiento.


Introduction: Tracheostomy is indicated to prevent laryngeal injury in cases of long-term translaryngeal intubation, to improve tracheal hygiene, decrease the dead space and reduce the time spent in intensive care units (ICU). The open technique is the most commonly used technique, which allows for an adequate control of anatomy and haemostasis. Currently, the percutaneous technique is increasingly used in CPUs, since it is a fast technique, with less perioperative complications. However, there is still controversy on this issue. Aim: This paper is a prospective study, designed to compare both techniques in terms of procedure duration and peri- and postoperative complications. Material and method: Out of a total of 91 patients, 50 were selected that did not have any counterindications for the percutaneous technique. These 50 patients were randomly assigned to either the open or the percutanous technique groups, obtaining 2 groups of 25 patients (Groups A andP). All patients had the surgery performed in the operating room, undergeneral anesthesia. Results: Total duration of the procedure (including anesthesia) was 65.8 and 59.2 min, and surgery duration was 40.4 and 32.2 min, respectively. Perioperative complications were: Group A, 16 percent (oxygen desaturation and bleeding were the more frequent problems), and Group P, 40 percent (oxygen desaturation and airway loss were the more frequent problems). Postoperative complications In Groups A and P were 8 and 12 percent (bleeding and infection being the more frequent problems in both groups), respectively. Conclusion: In our study, a comparison of both techniques did not show significant differences regarding either number of complications or duration of the procedure.

ABSTRACT

Se presenta el caso clínico de un paciente de 26 años de edad, con una fístula traqueocutánea. Esta aparece como complicación del empleo de una cánula de traqueostomía que fue mantenida por ocho meses para tratamiento ventilatorio del paciente en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos. Se muestra el cierre de la fístula traqueocutánea con un colgajo en tres planos que abarca, mucosa, músculo y piel en un mismo tiempo quirúrgico. Este artículo describe dicha técnica, la cual representa una buena opción quirúrgica, dado que durante y después de un seguimiento de cuatro años no se registraron complicaciones ni recidivas en este paciente

ABSTRACT

A retrospective study of complications of endotracheal intubation and tracheostomy is realized on 797 patients admitted in the center of intensive care and emergency medecine [CAMU] of Tunis upon a period of 5 years between 1988 and 1992. During this period 14 cases of laryngotracheal stenosis are identified; 8 cases following endotracheal intubation and 6 cases following tracheostomy. The evolution of these stenosis, in spite of treatment is caracterized by a high mortality [42,8%]. The determinants of laryngotracheal stenosis with P values 11 days, a frequency of self extubation >/= 2, a frequency of reintubation >/= 3, the existence of a nosocomial comial pulmonary infection and/or a shock of reventilation. These findings confirm the complexity of mechanisms of laryngotracheal injury and underline the importance of their prevention. So the authors recommend the pratice of tracheostomy before 10 days of intubation to prevent the complications of prolonged endotracheal intubation

ABSTRACT

Se revisaron 52 traqueostomías realizadas entre enero de 1980 y diciembre de 1986 en el Hospital Roberto del Río correspondientes a 34 pacientes con laringitis aguda y 18 con síndrome de Guillain Barré. Se analizó edad, momento en que se realizó el procedimiento, complicaciones y duración de la hospitalización. Se observó una mediana de 1 año a 7 meses de edad para los pacientes con laringitis aguda y de 3 años 7 meses para los de síndrome Guillain Barré. En ambos grupos el procedimiento se realizó en las primeras 24 horas de ingreso. 28 pacientes presentaron alguna complicación y 16 más de una. De los 34 con laringitis aguda se complicaron 13 y de los 18 con Síndrome de Guillain Barré se complicaron 15. Las complicaciones más frecuentes fueron neumonía y atelectasia en pacientes con Síndrome de Guillain Barré; 1 enfermo con laringitis aguda severa presentó paro cardiorespiratorio intraoperatorio. La obstrucción de la cánula se observó en ambos grupos, falleciendo por esta causa uno con laringitis aguda. Se presentó estenosis traqueal en dos niños con Síndrome de Guillain Barré y uno con laringitis aguda. La traqeostomía no debería seguir siendo el método de elección en pacientes que requieran una vía aérea artificial en forma urgente y por tiempo corto, debido a que es un procedimiento con riesgo de complicaciones de gran trascendencia, y debe reevaluarse el uso de la traqueostomía en aquellos pacientes que requieran vía aérea artificial por un tiempo prolongado

ABSTRACT

Se presentan 2 casos de estenosis traqueal benigna, tratados con resección circunferencial y anastomosis terminoterminal. Se analiza la etiopatogenia, la experiencia de distintos autores sobre el tema y la importancia de ciertos aspectos anatomoquirúrgicos, como la irrigación traqueal, las técnicas anestésicas, la magnitud de la resección y el abordaje quirúrgico. Coincidiendo con otros autores se aboga por el tratamiento inicial como método ideal de reconstrucción primaria de las lesiones obstructivas benignas de la tráquea. La integración de las distintas disciplinas en el análisis, estudio, táctica y ejecución son fundamentales para el éxito de estos procedimientos
