In a patient with a transtracheal oxygen catheter (ITO2C), a nearly fatal complication occurred due to the formation of a mucous plug on the tip, which almost totally obstructed the tracheal lumen. To our knowledge, this complication has not been reported before with the use of this type of transtracheal oxygen catheter.
在一名使用经气管氧导管(ITO2C)的患者中,由于导管尖端形成黏液栓,几乎完全阻塞气管腔,发生了近乎致命的并发症。据我们所知,使用这种类型的经气管氧导管之前尚未报告过这种并发症。
