“…Nasopharyngeal carcinoma is a malignancy in the nasopharyngeal region (above the throat and behind the nose) (Sudiono and Hassan, 2013). Some of the treatments for nasopharyngeal cancer, according to Rowshan and Baur (2010), include surgery through tracheostomy. Sputum (phlegm) is material released from the lungs and trachea through the mouth (Muttaqin, 2008).…”

The Global Burden of Cancer Study (Globocan) stated that nasopharyngeal cancer is the fifth most common cancer in Indonesia, with an incidence of 19,943 cases. One of the therapies for patients with nasopharyngeal cancer is a tracheostomy. Post-tracheostomy care is critical because blockage in the cannula due to accumulation of secretions impact decreasing oxygen saturation and result in death. This study analyzes the correlation between sputum retention and oxygen saturation in nasopharyngeal cancer patients with tracheostomy at the Emergency Department of Dharmais Cancer Hospital in 2022. It was correlational quantitative research with a cross-sectional approach. The study population was all nasopharyngeal cancer patients with tracheostomy at the Emergency Department, Dharmais Cancer Hospital, from August to November 2022, totaling 65 respondents. There were 65 respondents with a total sampling technique. The data collection used secondary data, namely the level of sputum retention and oxygen saturation in nasopharyngeal cancer patients with tracheostomy. Data analysis was univariate analysis and bivariate analysis through chi-square test. The result showed that most respondents experienced poor sputum retention (61.5%) and moderate hypoxemia (63.1%). The chi-square test obtained a p=0.000 (p<0.05). Thus, there was a correlation between sputum retention and oxygen saturation in respondents. In conclusion, sputum retention correlates with oxygen saturation in nasopharyngeal cancer patients with tracheostomy at the Emergency Department of Dharmais Cancer Hospital. The hospital should continue improving the ability of nurses to manage airway blockage through regular training.

“…This complication has a 25% mortality rate. [10] If it does occur, manual pressure over the tract or overinflation of the cuff when it is seated in this tract can help tamponade the bleed until the patient can be taken back to the operating room for further exploration.…”

Close to 3% of all intubation attempts are considered difficult airways, for which a plan for a surgical airway should be considered. Our article provides an overview of the different types of surgical airways. This article provides a comprehensive review of the main types of surgical airways, relevant anatomy, necessary equipment, indications and contraindications, preparation and positioning, technique, complications, and tips for management. It is important to remember that the placement of a surgical airway is a lifesaving procedure and should be considered in any setting when one “cannot intubate, cannot ventilate”.

Surgical Tracheotomy

Abstract: Tracheotomy is a surgical procedure that dates back to early history and medical advancement. The oral and maxillofacial surgeon routinely operates around the airway and should be able to master this procedure by adhering to the surgical principles outlined in this article.
