Health experts told TI that the Trakeoesophageal fistula developed in some patients who remained intubated for a long time.
During intubation for ventilation, a tube is included in the trachea to maintain oxygen supply, while others pass the food pipe to the stomach for breastfeeding.
Good tubes have balloons on their increasing tips through pressure so that the body’s secretion does not endanger the lungs and stomach.
Sometimes, the use of tubes for a long time causes swelling in the trachea, which is then trapped in a food pipe that leads to the formation of fistulas.
