甲狀腺切除術(thyroidectomy)後出現喘鳴(stridor)是呼吸道阻塞的緊急警訊,通常源於喉頭水腫(laryngeal edema)或術後出血壓迫氣管。這屬於「ABC」(Airway, Breathing, Circulation)中的 Airway 問題,必須優先處理。準備氣切包(tracheostomy tray)是為了在發生完全呼吸道阻塞時能立即執行緊急插管或氣切。
Stridor after thyroidectomy is an emergency airway-obstruction warning, usually from laryngeal edema or postoperative hematoma compressing the trachea. It is an airway (ABC) problem and the top priority. Preparing a tracheostomy tray ensures the team can perform emergency intubation or tracheostomy if complete airway obstruction occurs.
