decannulation मीनिंग इन हिंदी

Decannulation is the permanent removal of a cannula ( extubation ), especially of a tracheostomy cannula, once a physician determines it is no longer needed for breathing.
Once there is no longer a need for ventilatory assistance and / or protection of the airway, the tracheal tube is removed; this is referred to as extubation of the trachea ( or decannulation, in the case of a surgical airway such as a cricothyrotomy or a tracheotomy ).
