Care of patient with Laryngeotracheal injury (Bull gore injury)– a case report

S W Naomi Nancy, Dr Bala Seetharaman

Abstract :

Laryngotracheal injuries are not very common, but these injuries are fatal and life threatening. It is usually found in patients with multiple traumas. Most often laryngotracheal injuries are unrecognized because of the subtle nature of the presenting complaints, which does not usually correspond with the severity of the illness. The management of these injuries is diverse and composite, as these patients present with different and unforeseeable symptoms. The emergent nursing management includes maintenance of a stable airway. Once the airway is secured, the patients are required to be prepared for surgical repair and management to ameliorate the long term functional disabilities in terms of eathing, speech and swallowing
