Brief Summary

Trial is a randomized study to compare between ultrasound guided percutaneous tracheostomy and bronchoscopy guided percutaneous tracheostomy.

Detailed Description

Trial is a randomized study to compare between ultrasound guided percutaneous tracheostomy and bronchoscopy guided percutaneous tracheostomy.

Patients will be randomly assigned to be submitted to evaluate safety, complication rates, easy to perform , clinical outcomes and effectivity.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
procedure failure of ultrasound to provide this anatomical information and ease of performDuring percutaneous tracheostomy an expected average time 20 minutes

occurence of a major complications: bleeding, subcutaneous emphysema, oesophageal perforation, number of applied needle interventions, procedure duration, cardiorespiratory arrest

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
PneumothoraxParticipants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 4 weeks

Pneumothorax due to the percutaneous tracheostomy detected by clinical examination during the procedure or chest x-ray after the procedure.

Accidental decannulationParticipants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 4 weeks

Accidental decannulation after the procedure during Hospital stay

Minor bleedingParticipants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 4 weeks

Haemorrhage that could not be stopped by sponge wrapping the stoma after the procedure and/or blood coming with aspiration inside the tracheostomy tube was defined as minor bleeding

procedure timeduring percutaneous tracheostomy ( average expected time 20 minutes)

the procedure duration was taken as the time that elapsed from the placement of the needle to the placement of the tracheostomy cannula.

Tracheal posterior wall injuryParticipants will be followed for the duration of hospital stay, an expected average of 4 weeks

Tracheal posterior wall injury as detected by bronchoscopy after the procedure

Major bleedingDuring the procedure an expected average of 20 minutes

Continuous haemorrhage from the stoma and/or from the trachea with aspiration despite compresses was defined as a major haemorrhage.

Cardiorespiratory arrestduring percutaneous tracheostomy an expected average of 20 minutes

Cardiorespiratory arrest due to percutaneous tracheostomy
