Most important nursing intervention after laryngectomy is that after surgery, your voice may return to normal but you will sound hoarse.

Since the false cords are removed during a supraglottic partial laryngectomy, patients may recover from surgery with a normal or raspy voice. A total laryngectomy patient won't have a natural voice. A laryngo-fissure patient will have a normal voice. A hemilaryngectomy patient will have hoarse voice. Thus, the patient after a total laryngectomy will have a hoarse voice.

The larynx can be removed in whole or in part through a laryngectomy (voice box). It entails making an incision (cut) over the Adam's apple region on the outside of the neck. Partial laryngectomy: In order to treat some laryngeal malignancies, only a portion of the voice box needs to be removed.

laila [671]

Answer:

There will be less animal life in lake Raymond in the next year.

Explanation:

In the year with heavy rain, this has caused the depth of Raymond lake to be increased. This will bring an increase in the growth and survival of more water plants and animal species.

In the second year where there is a decrease in the water level, the animals and water plants will face problems. The worst hit are those plants and animals species that lives at a much deeper path of the lake with the least sunlight or any external factors that are now going to be more exposed due to low water level..
