Clinical Trial Summary

Tracheostomy is performed for prolonged mechanical ventilation. Ineffective bandaging following decannulation leaves the tracheostomy wound unsealed, reducing pulmonary function, coughing ability, and voice quality, ultimately leading to decannulation failure. Recently, a new concept enabling intratracheal sealing of the tracheotomy was introduced, potentially solving the issues of air leakage and tracheal wound infection. This study aims to investigate the feasibility of intratracheal tracheostomy sealing in relation to an immediate normalization of physiological airway flow and an improved voice quality.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Lung function / air flow Evaluated by spirometry At time of decannulation, i.e. directly after inclusion and randomization to sealing or not as first intervention
Primary Voice quality Evaluated by Equal-Appearing Interval Scale ranging from 1 to 5, where 5 represents a normal voice quality and 1 represents a severely impaired voice At time of decannulation, i.e. directly after inclusion and randomization to sealing or not as first intervention
