Description

Despite often taken as a simple procedure, techniques on tracheostomy have evolved considerably on the last few years. Consequently, new technical variations and indications for different purposes are being developed and proposed.� The current book�is proposed�to serve as a comprehensive guide exclusively devoted to tracheostomy, discussing its most important details, variations and indications. Here the reader will find a broad discussion ranging�from the most basic pre-clinical aspects�to post-surgical procedures and complications. Great emphasis�is �placed�on key topics such as the oncologic patient, variations of the technique, and�tracheostomy in the intensive care unit, among others. Additionally, some issues that are not commonly discussed in regular textbooks, like tracheostomy in child and in great obese, are also included.� With a wealth of photos, illustrations and tables, Tracheostomy � A Surgical Guide�provides the materialnecessary to support a safe and effective surgical intervention in different populations and surgical contexts, with the hope that it will result in improved care for patients�who underwent tracheostomy.Typham this is the title: Tracheostomy A Surgical Guide
