Tracheostomy was done to form temporary opening in the trachea, to remove secretion, to maintain ventilation and to protect against aspiration. In recent times, with the development of care methods such as low pressure cuff, endotracheal intubation is being combined with tracheostomy in the treatment of patients who are treated long period in the intensive care units and the duration from endotracheal intabation to tracheostomy is like to prolong. To determine the proper time of tracheostomy in the patient in the intensive care units, authors reviewed retrospectively the 96 patients who received the tracheostomy procedure among the 8776 patients who were admitted in the intensive care units of Asan medical center form March 1990 to March 1993, and analyzed the complications of tracheostomy, decannulation and the cause of decannulation failure according to disease, age indication of endotracheal intubation and duration of endotracheal intubation.
