- Abstract
- (en) Acute lung injury resulting from SARS‐CoV‐2 infection has led to high number of prolonged invasive mechanical ventilation. Role and timing of tracheostomy for patients requiring critical care for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19) remains unclear. So far, published data on early versus late tracheostomy are conflicting. Actual recommendations suggest that this procedure should be considered in patients with COVID 19 when mechanical ventilation is anticipated to be over 10 to 15 days.
