In this setting, tracheostomy can be performed either via open surgical or percutaneous technique. Advantages for percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy (PDT) include: simplicity, smaller incision, less tissue trauma, lower incidence of wound infection, lower incidence of peristomal bleeding, decreased morbidity from patient transfer, and cost\u2010effectiveness. Despite many studies comparing surgical tracheostomy (ST) versus PDT, there remains no consensus on which of these techniques minimizes complications in critically ill patients.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Purpose<\/jats:title><jats:p>To provide an updated meta\u2010analysis to answer the following question: Is there a difference in complication rates between ST and PDT in the setting of critically ill patients? Our secondary outcome of interest was to examine the difference in procedure time in the ST versus PDT groups.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We conducted a literature search using the following databases: Ovid MEDLINE, Embase, Google Scholar, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews.

Evaluation of infections rates and operative time, however, revealed a statistically significant difference, favoring PDT over ST.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>In critically ill patients, PDT appears to be a safe and efficient alternative to open ST.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Level of Evidence<\/jats:title><jats:p>NA <jats:italic>Laryngoscope<\/jats:italic>, 126:2459\u20132467, 2016<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.26019","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,14]],"date-time":"2016-04-14T05:12:20Z","timestamp":1460610740000},"page":"2459-2467","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":108,"title":["Complication rates of open surgical versus percutaneous tracheostomy in critically ill patients"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"126","author":[{"given":"Stephanie","family":"Johnson\u2010Obaseki","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery University of Ottawa Ottawa Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrea","family":"Veljkovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery University of British Columbia Vancouver British Columbia Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hedyeh","family":"Javidnia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology\u2013Head and Neck Surgery University of Ottawa Ottawa Ontario Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,4,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_1","unstructured":"BissellC.Aaron's tracheostomy page.
