The objective of the present study was to compare the frequency of complications associated with percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy by the method of Griggs and conventional surgical tracheostomy. The retrospective analysis of 120 critically ill patients maintained by mechanical ventilation and neurorehabilitated following tracheostomies was carried out. The two groups of the patients were matched for the age and severity of their clinical conditions. No difference was documented between the frequencies of complications after the treatment using the two surgical strategies. It is concluded that both percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy and conventional surgical tracheostomy may be recommended for the use in clinical practice.
