Most patients now receive a percutaneous tracheostomy over the previously favoured surgical tracheostomy. The aim of this study was to review our experience in performing percutaneous tracheostomies, whilst comparing complication rates with surgical tracheostomies performed in similar settings. All consecutive patients undergoing free flap reconstructive surgery for head and neck cancer between June 2020 and November 2021 were included, with 56 patients receiving a percutaneous tracheostomy. Data across a range of variables including age, BMI, comorbidities and complications was compared with 56 surgical tracheostomies performed for the same group of patients before the COVID-19 pandemic and resultant protocol changes. In the percutaneous group, a marginally lower complication rate was observed over the surgical tracheostomy group; 28.57% and 30.35% respectively. Analysis of the 16 patients who experienced complications in the percutaneous group led to development of selection criteria to identify appropriate patients to receive a percutaneous tracheostomy in future, based on factors such as BMI, bleeding risk and positioning deformities. The COVID-19 pandemic has offered a multitude of learning experiences for healthcare professionals to change our practice. In our unit, this has involved modifying the routine tracheostomy procedure used for airway management intra- and post-operatively in major head and neck reconstruction surgery.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100051,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100422"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49731180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
