IJERPH, Vol. 19, Pages 15746: Patient Outcomes following Immediate Tracheostomy and Emergency Decompressive Craniectomy in the Same Setting
In conclusion, compared to early tracheostomy, immediate tracheostomy in the same setting as emergency decompressive craniectomy is associated with a shorter duration of mechanical ventilation and LOS in critical-care units with acceptable morbidity and mortality rates. This practise could be used in busy centres with limited resources, such as those where mechanical ventilators, critical-care unit beds, or OT wait times are an issue.

Improving Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Survival in COVID-19. Effect of a Bundle of Care
Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support surged during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our program changed the model of care pursuing to protect the multidisciplinary team from the risk of infection and to serve as many patients as possible. Patient–healthcare interactions were restricted, and the ECMO bed capacity was increased by reducing the ECMO specialist–patient ratio to 1:4 with non-ECMO trained nurses support. The outcomes worsened and we paused while we evaluated and modified our model of care. The ECMO bed capacity was reduced to allow a nurse ECMO–specialist nurse ratio 2:1 with an ECMO traine...

Timing of Tracheostomy in Patients with Intracerebral Haemorrhage: A Propensity-Matched Analysis
CONCLUSION: We recommend ET for high-risk patients with ICH. Although ET cannot reduce in-hospital mortality or improve patient prognosis, it may help reduce hospital costs and ICU LOS as well as the use of antibiotics, sedatives and muscle relaxants.PMID:36125838 | DOI:10.2174/1567202619666220920122935
