Article Synopsis
- Stroke patients on mechanical ventilation often face poor outcomes, and the best timing for tracheostomy regarding mortality is unclear, prompting this systematic review and meta-analysis on the subject.*
-
- The study searched through five databases for relevant research on tracheostomy timing in stroke patients, including criteria for inclusion and exclusion of specific types of strokes.*
-
- Out of 17,346 patients analyzed, the average time to tracheostomy was about 9.7 days, with a reported all-cause mortality rate of 15.7%, indicating that only 20% achieved a good neurological outcome after a median follow-up of 180 days.*
