[0002] Tracheotomy is the main way to relieve patients' respiratory obstruction in clinical practice, but postoperative care is crucial, otherwise it may lead to various complications. Maintenance measures include keeping the cannula patency, maintaining the patency of the lower respiratory tract, preventing wound infection, preventing the cannula from falling out, and removing the tube.

[0003] However, when the existing bed pillow is used after tracheotomy, the patient's chin is likely to press against the tracheotomy, which may not only cause iatrogenic pressure injury and affect wound healing, but also aggravate the patient's fatigue because the neck cannot be massaged. The neck cannot be effectively relieved, which may further lead to slow wound healing and susceptibility to frustration and infection.

[0004] Therefore, in view of the problem that the patient's chin is easily pressed against the tracheotomy site and iatrogenic pressure injury can not be caused by the existing bed pillow after tracheotomy, and the neck cannot be massaged to relieve fatigue, resulting in slow wound healing and easy infection, a special pillow for tracheotomy can be designed.
