About NECK PVC Shiley Speaking Valve WITH O2 VALVE

Tracheotomy (/trekitmi/, UK also /trki-/), or tracheostomy, is a surgical airway management procedure which consists of making an incision (cut) on the anterior aspect (front) of the neck and opening a direct airway through an incision in the trachea (windpipe). The resulting stoma (hole) can serve independently as an airway or as a site for a tracheal tube or tracheostomy tube^[1] to be inserted; this tube allows a person to breathe without the use of the nose or mouth.
