Whenever those Patients in Intensive Care are facing the dilemma of getting a Tracheostomy and then go through multiple failed weaning attempts or don’t even get to those weaning attempts in the first place because their clinical condition doesn’t allow it, that’s when Patients, their Families and Intensive Care Units are in real trouble.
More often than not those Patients are then stuck in Intensive Care with a limited Quality of Life and/or Quality of end of life for many months to come!
