    A tracheostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an opening in the neck into the trachea (windpipe) to allow direct access to the breathing tube. It may be performed to relieve upper airway obstruction or when a patient requires long-term ventilator support. The opening is fitted with a tracheostomy tube to allow air to flow in and out during breathing.
