“…Implicit in the argument promoting stringent selection criteria is that patients inherently predisposed to perioperative complications are best served by tracheostomy performance in the more controlled environment of the operating room. 1,7,8,12–14,22–24 This study was initiated in part to further examine this issue.…”

“… 1–11 Furthermore, controversy persists regarding different methods of tracheostomy placement at the bedside. 12–17 This debate is in large part a result of the lack of a prospective randomized trial that defines patient selection criteria and directly compares open surgical with percutaneous dilational tracheotomy (PDT) at the bedside to establish their relative safety and cost‐effectiveness.…”

This investigation prospectively confirms the safety of bedside tracheostomy placement in properly selected patients. Complication incidence and resource utilization are defined for two methods of bedside tracheostomy. The results of this study confirm that open surgical tracheostomy represents the standard of care in bedside tracheostomy placement by providing a more secure airway at a markedly reduced patient charge. These findings will aid in the development of protocols and pathways for surgical airway management in critically ill patients to maximize cost-effective, high-quality care.

SummaryProblems with tracheal intubation are infrequent but are the most common cause of anaesthetic death or brain damage. The clinical situation is not always managed well. The Difficult Airway Society (DAS) has developed guidelines for management of the unanticipated difficult tracheal intubation in the non-obstetric adult patient without upper airway obstruction. These guidelines have been developed by consensus and are based on evidence and experience. We have produced flow-charts for three scenarios: routine induction; rapid sequence induction; and failed intubation, increasing hypoxaemia and difficult ventilation in the paralysed, anaesthetised patient. The flowcharts are simple, clear and definitive. They can be fully implemented only when the necessary equipment and training are available. The guidelines received overwhelming support from the membership of the DAS. Disclaimer: It is not intended that these guidelines should constitute a minimum standard of practice, nor are they to be regarded as a substitute for good clinical judgement.
