The trachea is a tube inside the body that goes from the throat to the lungs. The trachea is also called the windpipe or airway. The ET tube is attached to a machine called a respirator. A respirator gives a person oxygen (air), and breathes for him when he cannot breathe on his own. Endotracheal tube with suction catheter, being integrated with suction catheter can help avoid hurting vocal cord compared with ordinary suction catheter. Why would someone need an endotracheal tube? A person will need an ET tube if they are not able to breathe enough oxygen for their body. This can occur if he has an injury, serious illness, or cardiac arrest (heart attack). An ET tube may also be used during surgery. While a person is in surgery, he may get medicines to relax him and make him fall asleep. These medicines make it hard for a person to breathe on their own. Having an ET tube allows the patient to get the oxygen he needs, and allows the caregiver to treat the patient. If you or a family member is going to have surgery, ask your caregiver for more information. This includes what will be done during the surgery, and how to get ready for it.
