Yes, perhaps something with Tracheostomy However, that's a procedure, not an item http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/002955.htm
so maybe Lisbeth is on to something here - impossible to say without context, though.
Lisbeth Mejer Jun 12, 2015:
Could it possibly have anything to do with Trachea(l)? Hard to know without any context....
Pernille Kienle Jun 12, 2015:
More context please e.g. what are the other items?

trakeostomitube

Trach refers to both tracheotomy, which is the surgical procedure of creating a stoma into the trachea to allow artificial breathing, and tracheostomy, which is the hole ot opening created after the procedure. A tube may be inserted into the opening for support and is called a trach tube.

The term may also be used informally to the patient receiving tracheotomy.

trakea (luftrør)

Jeg ved at på engelsk bruger man trach som en forkortelse for trachea, det kan også på engelsk betyde bade -otomi og -ostomi. Som Lisbeth sagde, svært at sige uden flere oplysninger.
