Abstract:

Percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy (PDT) is a commonly performed procedure in critically ill patients. It can be safely performed bedside. This has resulted in decline in the use of surgical tracheostomy except in few selected cases. Over the last 10 years data on newer methods of insertion, timing, safety profile and complication rates have been published, which have greatly improved our understanding of this procedure. Most common indication of tracheostomy in ICU is the need for prolonged ventilation. complications become less with increase in skills. Many methods of performing PDT have been discovered recently, Bronchoscopy have been found beneficial procedural aides the PDT. In our study brief overview about the use of PDT in ICU and, different percutaneous techniques will be discussed. We conclude that percutaneous tracheostomies offer benefits for some of the outcomes when compared with surgical tracheostomies.
