Do you deflate trach cuff when suctioning?

Yes, it is generally recommended to deflate the tracheostomy cuff before suctioning to prevent airway trauma and allow for proper suctioning of secretions. Deflating the cuff reduces pressure on the tracheal wall and minimizes the risk of injury during the suctioning process. After suctioning, the cuff can be reinflated to maintain adequate ventilation and prevent aspiration. Always follow specific protocols or guidelines provided by healthcare facilities.
