Key points of nursing included: A multidisciplinary collaborative team was established to conduct multi-dimensional early rehabilitation, including the implementation of sequential respiratory support therapy, comprehensive measures for airway clearance, early and progressive rehabilitation training, as well as individualized nutritional and psychological interventions.

After receiving personalized rehabilitation training and nursing care, the patient's tracheostomy tube was successfully removed, with the functions of phonation and respiration reconstructed, and the ability of daily living self-care restored.
