Tracheostomy
means the process of making incision through the neck into the trachea which opens airway and
helps in the breathing. Tracheostomy suctioning means it removes the thick mucus and secretions from the
Trachea and lower airway when patient is not able to clear their throats by coughing.
SUCTION SUCTION
Our institution really provides us the knowledge we need even though there is a pandemic crisis. I watched
videos regarding tracheostomy care and suctioning and closed suction systems. I was amazed by the
animation and knowledge brought by the videos. Even though there is a barrier between physical class and
for nursing students, we can find ways on how to learn such procedures. The first video I watched is about
tracheostomy care and suctioning. It was about a demo tackling a nursing intervention which is specifically
about tracheostomy care and suctioning. The video is very specific on what should we do. From the entry
to the patient’s room up to the end procedure. There is a specific part of the procedure that I took on very
well. 50% saline into the large compartment and other 50% to 2 compartments which is 25 and 25 plus with
hydrogen peroxide. We need to take in mid specific information like this and as a nurse it is important to
take note and it will be helpful for my future procedure as we go on with our duty. Before proceeding to
suctioning, I also take note that there is a different purpose of our both hands. Dominant hand should always
be sterile and other hand is clean. This will be proven helpful in the suctioning process. Suctioning and
tracheostomy care is very complex and quite hard to understand. But will the help of these videos and the
practical knowledge of our clinical instructors. I was enabled to learn such things even without actually
seeing it physically. I wish I could see the actual way but I with these kinds of videos I have a head start.
The 2nd video is about using Intersurgical’s Trach seal, closed suction systems. It is a video about
a comprehensive guide on setting up and using trachseal close suction system. As I search pictures about
these and what I’ve seen on videos, this is the usual thing that I watch on movies whenever a patient is
hospitalized. There is a tube-like that is inserted on a patient’s mouth. Usually for patient who are
unconscious. At first, I was like, I saw this procedure before and I knew it, it is the usual thing I’ve seen on
movies. I’m glad I took nursing as a college degree. I have come to realize that nursing is really a fun and
practical thing to do as nursing encompasses many things in life. I hope I can have the duty soon, so that I
