METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients during the 14-month period from November 1, 2003, through January 1, 2005. Inc...
Tracheotomy is a commonly performed procedure. The Belgian Society of Pneumology (BVP-SBP) and the Belgian Association for Cardiothoracic Surgery (BACTS) developed guidelines on tracheotomy for mechanical ventilation in adults. The levels of evidence as developed by the American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) were used. The members of the guideline committee reviewed peer-reviewed publicati...
BACKGROUND Children with tracheotomy receive health care from an array of providers within various hospital and community health system sectors. Previous studies have highlighted substandard health information exchange between families and these sectors. The aim of this study was to investigate the perceptions and experiences of parents and providers with regard to health information management...

Aim of the study is a retrospective analysis on the use of temporary tracheotomy in our snoring surgery experience. From September 1996 to April 2002, 1103 snoring surgery procedures have been carried out on various sites of the upper airways in 530 patients (mean age 50 years, 81% males) prevalently related to severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndromes (33%). Of these patients, 472 (89%) were op...
I am writing to you in reference to an article titled “Late Tracheotomy Is Associated With Higher Morbidity and Mortality in Mechanically Ventilated Patients” by Patel et al., which was published in your esteemed journal. The study was planned and executed and is very thought provoking. However, I beg to differ with the authors’ conclusion and would like to highlight my argument through your es...

SETTING Multi-institution (academic, tertiary referral centers). PATIENTS A total of 117 patients with pathologically confirmed T2 to T4 lesions, stage III or stage IV, glottic or supraglottic carcinoma of the ...

METHODS Charts were reviewed for inpatients admitted to an intensive care unit from 2007 to 2010 with International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision codes of obesity or morbid obesity and trach...
Tracheotomy is widely used in intensive care units, albeit with great disparities between medical teams in terms of frequency and modality. Indications and techniques are, however, associated with variable levels of evidence based on inhomogeneous or even contradictory literature. Our aim was to conduct a systematic analysis of the published data in order to provide guidelines. We present herei...
