Tracheostomy is a medical procedure that involves an incision in the neck and the placement of a tube in the trachea to maintain an open airway. Recovery requires care and attention to avoid complications and ensure the proper functioning of the tracheostomy tube.

• Care: It is recommended to clean the area around the tracheostomy with saline solution and sterile gauze.
• Suctioning: The patient may need suctioning to remove mucus from the trachea.
• Communication and speech: Usually, tracheostomy prevents speech, but with special valves or techniques, patients can regain the ability to speak.
• Humidity: Use of a humidifier to add moisture to the air the patient breathes in.
