Robotic tracheostomy care and education for airway safety
Part of Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This study looks at using robotic technology and educational programs to improve care and safety for people with a tracheostomy (a breathing tube in the throat). It aims to help patients like you manage their airway better and avoid complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old
- You had a tracheostomy placed during your hospital stay, OR you were admitted to the hospital with one already in place

This trial tests a device called TrachPhone that helps people with a tracheostomy speak more clearly. It may be a good fit if you are stable and breathing on your own through your trach tube.
This study looks at children with tracheostomies to see if symptoms you or your doctor notice can predict airway problems found during a routine scope. Participation involves no extra procedures—just answering questions and giving permission to use information from that routine scope.
This study offers help and training to caregivers of children with a tracheostomy who are getting ready to bring their child home from the hospital. The goal is to make caring for a child with a tracheostomy at home easier and safer.
This trial looks at two ways to keep the air you breathe moist after a tracheostomy (a tube in your throat to help you breathe). It compares a device called TrachPhone with a standard warm air humidifier to see which works better for patients in the intensive care unit.
This study tests whether a structured education program for family members of ICU patients who need a tracheostomy helps them feel more prepared and less stressed. You would be asked to attend training sessions and fill out some questionnaires.
This study tests a digital health program for children with complex medical needs who have a tracheostomy. The program helps families and doctors manage care at home.
