dc.description.abstractAim: The history of tracheostomy goes back to 3600 BC. Percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy was described in 1985 by Ciaglia. Percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy is quick, less traumatic, and has fewer complications. The aim of our study was to analyze the tracheostomy results of 199 patients in our Intensive Care Units. Material and Methods: We included patients who underwent tracheostomy in our Intensive Care Units between January 2014 and December 2018 in Malatya Training and Research Hospital. A retrospective analysis was carried out for diagnosis, complications, surgical tracheostomy requirement reasons, demographics, comorbidity, ICU stay period, date of tracheostomy procedure, days to tracheostomy procedure from day of admission to ICU, days to tracheostomy procedure from initial tracheal intubation, days connected to mechanical ventilation, tracheostomy technique, urgent or elective, the final state of the patients were analyzed. Data were collected from the patients' records. The data of the study was evaluated through SPSS 'statistical package for social sciences' (spss17.0) 'program. Results: The average age of discharged patients was 56.3 years and 74.4 for the dead patient group. There was a statistically significant increase between age and mortality, and between Apache II score and mortality (p<0.05). Discussion: According to our study results, percutaneous tracheostomy is a method with a low complication rate and easy applicability. No statistically significant results were found between the time from admission to the intensive care unit to the day of tracheostomy opening, the time to stay intubated, and mortality.
