Abstract: Objective To explore the application value of percutaneous dilational tracheostomy in the neurological intensive patients. Methods The clinical data of 298 neurological intensive patients treated with percutaneous dilational tracheotomy were analyzed retrospectively from June 2010 to July 2016. Results Percutaneous dilational tracheostomy was successfully performed in all of the 298 cases. The mean operation duration was (6.8 ± 2.2) minutes with a rang of 2 to 15 min. There were 1 case with tracheal tube placement difficulties, 1 case in whom the trachea spatium was strayed into, 1 case with arrhythmia, 10 cases with mild bleeding and 5 cases with moderate bleeding. No severe bleeding, subcutaneous emphysema, pneumothorax, tracheoesophageal fistula and other complications caused by the operation were found. And no death case was found. Conclusions Percutaneous dilational tracheostomy is a rapid and minimally invasive technique, which is a better choice for patients with severe neurological diseases.
