Tracheotomy dilator

Tracheotomy dilator

Tracheotomy dilator - this is a special device that is used to separate the edges of the wound in the trachea for the purpose of tracheotomy. This is a surgical procedure that allows a tube to be passed through the windpipe to assist breathing in patients whose throat or vocal cords are not working.

A tracheotomy is an operation that is performed under general anesthesia and involves making an incision in the patient's neck to gain access to the trachea. A tracheotomy edge spreader is then used to spread the wounds apart so that the tube can be inserted into the trachea. The tube has a small diameter and provides air into the patient's lungs.

The tracheotomy dilator consists of two parts: a handle and a blade. The handle is shaped like a handle and is made of durable material such as metal or plastic. The blade is made of a softer material and has a pointed end, which allows you to expand the edges of the wound.

When using a tracheotomy dilator, it is important to use sterility and caution. Before use, the blades should be treated with alcohol or another disinfectant. After use, blades should also be cleaned and placed in a sterile container for subsequent disposal.

It is important to note that the tracheotomy dilator is for medical purposes only and should not be used for other purposes such as cutting or traumatizing the skin. If you are unsure of your skills or do not have relevant experience, it is better to consult a doctor or medical specialist for surgery.
