Riaz Aziz talks to Drs Okonkwo and Fernandez and Ms Cochrane from Great Ormond street Hospital for children about the management of a tracheotomy in a child. We talk about the pre anaesthetic assessment for patients with a current tracheostomy or those that may have had one in the past. We explore what to do in an emergency and discuss the EXIST procedure.
