Fauquier ENT | Tracheostomy Healing Closed Time Lapse @fauquierent | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 2 hours ago
Generative AI was used to create a seamless video showing how a trach neck opening closes over time. Images were based on actual photos. In order for a trach to close naturally, an occlusive dressing must be placed over the opening at all times (1:22). Furthermore, whenever talking or coughing, the dressing needs to be reinforced with finger pressure to prevent any air leakage.
