ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Around 20% of intensive care unit (ICU) patients undergo tracheostomy insertion and expect high-quality care concentrating on patient-centered outcomes including communication, oral intake, and mobilization. The majority of data has focused on timing, mortality, and resource utilization, with a paucity of information on quality of life following tracheostomy.METHODS:
Single center retrospective study including all patients requiring tracheostomy from 2017 to 2019.
