This week's Question of the Week is: When the Tracheostomy Tube Cuff is Inflated, is There Any Way to Speak? Depending on how a person's tracheostomy tube cuff is inflated or if the person has a special tracheostomy tube with a subglottic suction port, the answer is maybe. #lifewithavent #trach #howtotalk

My daughter had a trach placed in November 7mm she was able to speak over it even with cuff up. Now she has a 6mm and speaks clearly over this one even with cuff fully inflated ❤

Hello MyDear and Precious Friend You always did such a great job with answering the question of the week. I will miss this part of your videos. I have a question about why would you have to put a speaking valve on a Trach Tube if you can inflate a Tracheostomy Tube Cuff what is the difference between Inflating a Trachestomy Tube Cuff and putting on a Speaking Valve?
