Thanks for the video. One correction: cuffed tracheostomy tubes do NOT prevent aspiration! Aspiration occurs when food or drink passes below the level of the true vocal folds. The true vocal folds are superior to the cuff. By the time any food or drink makes it down to the cuff, aspiration has already occurred. (I'm a medical speech pathologist who works with trach and vent patients.)

But it will prevent the foods to go to the lungs yes?

@@tarksahinoglu4585 Actually, the cuff doesn’t prevent food or liquids from reaching the lungs. The cuff is designed to seal off the trachea to help with mechanical ventilation and prevent air leaks-not to block food or liquid. If someone aspirates (meaning food or liquid or even just saliva/secretion with bacteria due to poor oral hygiene care goes below the vocal folds), that material can still pool above the cuff and eventually seep around it, potentially leading to aspiration pneumonia. The best way to manage aspiration risks involves comprehensive evaluation and strategies/treatment by a medical speech-language pathologist and the medical team-not relying on the cuff.

I have had a tracheotomy since March 2012... A year later I was taking care of all my tracheotomy needs.. The doctor started me out with the trache wit the extra hole in it.. I had a very hard time remembering when to pump it up & when not to.. As of 2022 I still have a tracheotomy. My body is rejecting it,,, my mind will not let my doctor to remove it & my hole closed over... As of 2015,,, I've had a new doctor,,, truly listen to me about all tracheotomy related things.... My old doctor was an a$$ lack of better words... He told me I would never live outside a nursing home,, or ever learn to take care of my tracheotomy or myself with one.... I take care of all,, also moving to Colorado from Pennsylvania really helped too....

Also, the PMV cap can redirect the air to the vocal folds. I'm an SLP.
