What is the thing called when you go in to the hospital they sometimes put in your neck?

Answer:
called a tracheotomy. a surgical procedure where a small hole is cut directly into the trachea (windpipe) to relieve an obstructed airway. it's also used on patients who have been on a ventilator (had a breathing tube put into their throat through their mouth) for a while and are now ready to slowly start breathing on their own.a trach collar is a small plastic piece that is put over the hole in the trachea that is used to attach the vent to the patient so they can breathe.here are some links that might helphttp://circlecity.co.uk/sleepdesk/photos...http://www.healthwellnc.com/trustories/i...
