Summary
This study tested whether giving warm, moist oxygen through a tracheostomy tube can prevent lung complications like pneumonia or collapsed lungs after major head and neck surgery. 56 adults who had surgery with a tracheostomy were randomly assigned to receive either this high-flow oxygen or standard cool-mist oxygen. The goal was to see which method better prevents breathing problems in the first two weeks after surgery.
