Dr. Tarun Gera, Dr. Joseph L Mathew, Department of Pediatrics, LN Hospital, New Delhi, India
		tracheostomy /indications The indications for tracheostomy have gradually been usurped by the indications for endotracheal intubation. By and large, tracheostomy is now indicated only in those cases in which intubation is not feasible. There are three broad groups of patients in which tracheostomy needs to be performed: airway obstruction Tracheostomy is needed in cases of upper airway obstruction when laryngeal intubation is not possible. Examples of such cases include patients with laryngeal or subglottic stenosis, physical trauma to the face, jaws, oral or pharyngeal cavities, and burns by corrosive chemicals or inhalation of smoke or gases. dead space and secretions Tracheostomy aids in conditions like chronic lung disease, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and certain neonatal conditions by decreasing the dead space and easing pulmonary toilet. ventilation Tracheostomy may be indicated for the provision of positive pressure ventilation in patients with poliomyelitis, tetanus, brain damage, as an adjunct to cardiac surgery, in severe burns, and in the preterm neonate. Intubation may be employed for the short term (for periods up to 3 weeks) but for prolonged treatment the tracheostomy becomes easier to manage. Improvements in technique now permit intubation for periods of several months. Therefore some authors now argue that a tracheostomy becomes a necessity only when prolonged endotracheal intubation poses the threat of laryngotracheal injury. Some specific indications for tracheostomy are given below:   congenital laryngeal abnormalities 1. bilateral vocal cord paralysis (video) 2. congenital subglottic stenosis (MPEG video and helical CT) and cysts subglottic stenosis (multimedia index) 3. laryngeal webs 4. subglottic hemangiomata 5. laryngomalacia (video) (cine CT) tracheo/laryngomalacia (multimedia index) links above referenced from Virtual Hospital     prolonged ventilation An ideal clinical study, comparing the risks and benefits of tracheostomy with prolonged translaryngeal intubation has not been performed (Heffner 1989, Heffner 1993). Nevertheless, the use of a tracheostomy for providing access to the patient's airway has become commonplace in ICUs and other areas of the hospital for treating patients who are difficult to wean from mechanical ventilation (Gracey 1995). Additionally, the technique of percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy has added to the cost-effectiveness and ease with which this procedure can be performed at the bedside (Marx 1996, Friedman 1996). Taken together, these factors may explain the more frequent and earlier use of tracheostomy for patients in need of prolonged ventilatory support. Benefits of a tracheostomy in long-term mechanical ventilation include improved airway suctioning, better patient comfort, absence of laryngeal complications, easier tube changes and capabilities for oral nutrition. Also, ventilator-dependent patients may tolerate weaning attempts better when spontaneously breathing through a tracheostomy that contributes less to airway resistance than an oral endotracheal tube. Optimal timing, however, for conversion from endotracheal intubation to tracheostomy in most patients is controversial. A decision to continue endotracheal intubation for several weeks is encouraged by the avoidance of tracheostomy complications such as tracheal stenosis at the stoma site, the increased bacterial colonisation of the airway associated with tracheostomy, and the natural inclination to maintain the tracheal cannulation longer than needed once a tracheostomy has been placed. Prolonged endotracheal intubation, however, is not risk free; there is potential for laryngeal stenosis, which progresses in severity with duration of intubation. Data from various prospective studies indicate that endotracheal intubation and tracheostomy both present inherent hazards for long term airway management. For the patient requiring chronic mechanical ventilation, however, endotracheal intubation is less comfortable, provides less efficient suctioning than through a tracheostomy tube, and risks laryngeal damage related to the duration of ventilation. Therefore, based on the available clinical data, most authors recommend endotracheal tube intubation for patients requiring assisted ventilation for less than 7 days (Heffner 1986). After 7 days of intubation the patient is re-evaluated; if extubation appears likely before the 11th day, then tracheostomy is not performed, but if extubation cannot be foreseen on the 7th day, conversion to tracheostomy should be strongly considered. Realising that no general principle works for every patient, the decision to perform tracheostomy must often be individualized; the agitated difficult-to-sedate patient may benefit from earlier surgery, while the patient at higher risk for surgical complications may be allowed more time for possible extubation. supralaryngeal obstruction 1. Pierre-Robin Syndrome Virtual Children's Hospital: Pierre-Robin Syndrome OMIM: Pierre Robin Syndrome   2. Craniofacial injury   trauma.org: Airway management of the trauma victim.   3. Obstructive sleep apnea Tracheostomies for the management of obstructive sleep apnea have a number of disadvantages including aesthetic patient disfigurement, an imposed strict hygienic regime, occasional voice damage and the risk of tracheal stenosis. Therefore close adherence to indications for tracheostomy should be observed. If the patient is not a candidate for a uvulopalatopharyngoplasty because of morbid obesity, a small mandible or a nonvisible endolarynx by mirror examination due to excessive hypopharyngeal tissue, tracheostomy is considered in the following clinical situations: considerable social and occupational disability from excessive daytime hypersomnolence, sleep related cardiovascular complications, polysomnographic documentation of numerous obstructive apneas with arterial oxygen desaturation, confirmation of obstruction in the supraglottic region by fibreoptic endoscopy of the pharyngeal airway. acquired laryngeal abnormalities 1.

Treating running nose is no big deal... but treating its
complications and PNDrip is a headache for the practitioner. In fact,
I had seen pediatricians admitting and sedating for 3 days to get rid
off.
tricks:
Running nose:
A very common problem; watery or thick.. continuous or intermittent..
with fever or without fever
watery or thick.. :
Clean nostrils with ear buds, periodically, if its thicker.. use
saline drops : no of drops + no of months of age till 8 months.. then
10 drops for all, wait 2 secondsa fter each drop.. then clean with
ear buds once the drops are over. why more drops? - Bcos you want to
douche the whole nasopharynx and clean the nose; the sticly
secretions along nasopharynx will be dragged to oropharynx and then
swallowed.
If its running continuously, one may prefer putting decongestant
nasal drop like flucold drops.. or nasovion mini drops, use only 2 to
4 drops at any age.. nose will dry within 20 minutes provided drops
are put after drying the nose with ear buds.. small dose bcos we want
local action. Dont keep it TDS, can be used SOS. TDS use makes nose
dry.. and the worst nose block will happena nd child will be very
irritable crying refusla to feeds etc.
Treatment of noseblock: commonest cause; inadvertant or TDS use of
decongestant or sleeping in front of / facing fan..
Treatment: saline drops: I use nasoclear drops procedure as above.
But keep it TDS, keep nose wet, avoid drying by air/drugs. Stop
decongestant drops. If child is cranky, do a mechanical nasal suction
tiding over the crisis.. the thick secretions may be difficult to
suck by syringe. Give A soothing nebulisation following suction,
Clinical indicator: Irritability settles, child sleeps.
Treatment of Any of above with fever ; with or without PND:
Add a simple antipyretic, paracetamol: regular dose, round the clock
for 2 days. If running nose, give combination with decongestant TDS
orally, I find syp Sinarest more effective.
For PND: a good saline nebulisation with prior nasal suction and
saline drop wash of nose. continue oral PCM and decongestant drosp
combination for 3 days.
At times a short course chemotherapy with azithromycin may help.
