- Abstract
Background: Tracheostomy is an important procedure that is often performed to maintain the airway, especially in patients with critical conditions. The size of the canul and the duration of tracheostomy canululation are thought to affect the healing time of the wound after decannation. However, evidence to support this relationship is still limited. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the effect of tracheostomy canul size and cannula duration on the healing time of tracheostomy wounds after decanation. Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted on 13 patients who underwent tracheostomy at Prof. Dr. R.D Kandou Hospital. Data on the size of the canul, the duration of canulation, and the time to heal wounds were collected. Statistical analysis, including logistic regression and descriptive analysis, is used to assess the relationship between variables. Results: The size of the cannula varied from 6.5 mm to 7.5 mm, with the duration of canulization ranging from 9 to 77 days. Wound healing times also vary, with some patients healing within 14 days, while others take more than 14 days. Statistical analysis did not show a significant relationship between the size of the canul or the duration of cannula and the time to wound healing. However, parastomal infections were found to prolong the healing time by an average of four days (p = 0.003). Conclusion: The size of the canul and the duration of cannulation had no significant effect on the healing time of post-decannation tracheostomy wounds. Parasomal infections, on the other hand, play an important role in slowing down wound healing. More research is needed to explore the specific factors that influence infection-related healing delays.
