Article Synopsis
  • Tracheostomy is a common procedure in ICU patients and decannulation involves transitioning patients off the tracheostomy tube for better breathing and airway protection, but there isn't a widely accepted protocol for this process.
  • The study aims to compare two decannulation methods: gradual tube blocking and reducing the size of the tube, while also assessing complications associated with each method.
