Introduction The Endoctracheal suctioning is the process of removing mucus in a patient’s body, this requires the insertion of a catherer to remove the secretion from the artificial airway. A suction device is used to pressure and trap the mucus in a vacuum so as to maintain the patient’s comfort airway passage. Endotracheal suctioning is often performed process in most hospitals and clinics, although there are associated complications and risks such as hypoxia, mucosal harm and cardiac dysrhythmias are usually associated with the endoctracheal suctioning process especially if not performed correctly. There is also an adverse effect to patients, such stress or anxiety, therefore It can be a high risk procedure that must be done correctly and …show more content…
For instance, special 3D animation and dummies are replacing the use of animals while new low cost apparatus has constantly been introduced. There are also new innovative approaches to enhance the safety measures in endoctracheal suctioning, while it is also expected that more studies is on its way to improve such procedure. For instance, Open Suction System (OSS) is now being replaced by Close Suction System (CSS) administration Surkov (2014) although both of them are still …show more content…
For instance the Tracheal Suction Catherer (TSC), measurement of liquids, the recording process is all critical, according to (Sha, Fung, Brim & Rubin, 2005). During their actual studies, they found out that greater TCS distance, diameter, force and positioning have become vital for suctioning mucus, it can have a different effect on TSC performance. This only shows that effective learning program changes have been achieved, although they should not be complacent with their knowledge since the practice of endotracheal suctioning can also change. Several practitioners attempt to continue to establish new discoveries and learning opportunities not to be limited by the current process as shown
