We often take breathing easily for granted until something affects our breathing process. Suffering from severe illness can be challenging and complex for any individual. When there occurs a blockage in the airways or when people suffer from the condition of tracheostomy, their breathing can be affected. To manage and maintain their ventilation process, our clinic offers Airway Management at Home in Dubai, so that patients can get the right care at their homes in case of any emergency.
Understanding the Concept of Airway Management:
Some health conditions make it difficult for people to maintain and manage their ventilation, and breathing. Airway management is a series of different medical procedures that involve managing, maintaining, and planning to restore a person’s ventilation and breathing. Distress in airways can occur due to several different reasons. This process involves invasive and non-invasive techniques to help overcome the difficulty people face with their ventilation.
Reasons That Lead to Obstruction in Airways:
Several different reasons might lead an individual to have a blockage in their airways. These are:
- Mistakenly inhaling or swallowing a foreign object.
- Due to the tongue falling backward.
- Viral and bacterial infections.
- Enlarged tonsils.
- Tonsillitis and thermal injury.
When Do People Require Airway Management?
Some certain signs and symptoms occur and show that individuals require this process. If you or your family members notice these symptoms, then you should consult a proper professional expert and get their treatment started:
- People who are under sedation.
- Individuals who experience a rapid change in mental status.
- If you experience choking.
- Suffering from penetrating trauma.
- Individuals who have respiratory failure.
- Because of airway obstruction.
Types of Airway Management:
Different types of devices are used to maintain the airways of individuals who suffer from these problems, these are:
Oropharyngeal:
This type of device opens and adjusts the patient’s airway by stopping the tongue from preventing the individual’s tongue to cover the epiglottis.
Endotracheal:
This is a tube-type device that helps provide oxygen, medicines, and other gases to the lungs. This process also supports breathing when people suffer from different illnesses.
Nasopharyngeal:
This is a flexible tube, which is inserted into the nostrils to help with breathing and ventilation.
