Additional Info edit

'''Includes''' * cricothyrotomy *This code is for '''new creation''' of a tracheostomy -- it may be done in the OR or at the bedside using a bedside trach kit, or a true open procedure *It can be coded more than once '''''only if the tube falls out and the hole closes up, and as a result the procedure needs to be done again''''', but do NOT code this if all that happened was the tube fell out and somebody came back and put a new one into the existing stoma.
