Reducing Tracheostomy-Related Acquired Pressure Injury by Flipping the Ventilator Circuit Position Study

BACKGROUND:. Tracheostomy-related acquired pressure injuries (TRPIs) are one of the hospital-acquired conditions. We hypothesize that an uneven ventilator circuit load, leading to non-neutral tracheostomy tube positioning in the immediate post-tracheostomy period, leads to an increased incidence of...
