Comparative Study between Early Tracheostomy and Extended Endotracheal Intubation in Severe Head Injury

Background: The optimal tracheostomy time is considered a debatable issue for patients with severe Head injury in intensive care units [ICUs], which require mechanical ventilation [MV] for long period.The aim of the work: The current study aimed to investigate the effect of tracheostomy operation in...
