Details and patient eligibility

About

This study aims to evaluate how well tracheotomized patients can cough before and after their tracheostomy tube is removed. Cough strength is measured using two different tools-Peak Flow and Lorio. Researchers want to find out if the cough measurement taken before removing the tube can help predict how effective the patient's cough will be afterward. The study will also explore factors that might influence cough strength and compare the usefulness of the two tools. Additionally, it will assess how patients feel about using these devices and the role of diaphragm ultrasound in predicting cough effectiveness.
