Amaç: Hastaların sedasyon ihtiyacını azaltması, pulmoner sekresyonların temizliğinin daha etkin yapılabilmesi, yoğunbakım yatış gün sayısı üzerine olan olumlu katkılarından dolayı trakeotomi çocuk yoğunbakım uzmanlarının sıkça başvurduğu bir cerrahi prosedür haline gelmiştir. Daha önce trakeotomi endikasyonları, zamanlaması ve komplikasyonları gibi konularla ilgili bir çok çalışma yapılmış olmasına rağmen mekanik ventilatörden ayrılma ve dekanülasyon ile ilgili bilgiler sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmada trakeotomi sonrası mekanik ventilatörden ayrılma ve dekanülasyon sonuçlarınının değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma Erciyes Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Tıp Fakültesi Çocuk Yoğun Bakım Ünitesi’nde Ocak 2010- Ağustos 2016 tarihleri arasında trakeotomi açılan hastaların kayıtları retrospektif olarak taranarak yapılmıştır.Bulgular: Bu çalışmaya yaş ortancaları 23 ay (10-79) olan, 55’i erkek (%51.4), 52’si kız (%48.6) toplam 107 hasta dahil edildi. Hastaların trakeotomi öncesi mekanik ventilatör süresi 23 (17-30) gündü. Trakeotomi açılma endikasyonları arasında 87 (%81.3) hasta ile uzamış entübasyonun ilk sırada yer aldığı görüldü. Onbeş hastaya (%14) üst hava yolu obstrüksiyonu, 5 hastaya (%4.7) ise havayolu temizliği endikasyonlarıyla trakeotomi açıldı. Tüm hastaların 65’i (%60) mekanik ventilatörden ayrılabildi ve bu hastaların 30’una (%28) dekanülasyon gerçekleştirildi. Erken trakeotomi (ET) grubunun yoğunbakım yatış gün sayısı 23 (15-32) gün, geç trakeotomi (GT) grubunun ki ise 52 (40-79) gündü (p<0.01). İki grup arasında mortalite açısından anlamlı fark tespit edilmedi (p=0.786).Sonuç: Trakeotomi çocuk yoğun bakım yatak kapasitesinin sınırlı olduğu ülkemizde kronik hasta yükünü hafifletme açısından iyi bir seçenektir.
Objective: Tracheostomy has become a frequent surgical procedure for pediatric intensivists asit reduces the patient’s sedation needs and the length of the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) stay and also improves the efficiency of pulmonary secretion clearance. Despite previous studies on tracheostomy indications, timing and complications, there is limited information on extubation success and decanulation. In this study, we aimed to present the decanulation and weaning from mechanical ventilator results after tracheostomy.Material and Methods: This study was carried out retrospectively from the records of patients who underwent tracheostomy between January 2010 and August 2016 at the Erciyes University Medical Faculty Pediatric Intensive Care Unit.Results: A total of 107 patients were included in this study. There were 55 (51.4%) males and 52 (48.6%) females. The median age of the patients was 23 months and the duration of mechanical ventilation before tracheostomy was 23 days. The most common indication was long-term ventilation (81.3%), followed by airway abstruction (14%), and pulmonary toilet (4.7%). Sixty five were weaned from the mechanical ventilator and 28% of the patients were decannulated. The ET group PICU stay was 23 days, and the LT group PICU stay was 52 days (p<0.01). There was no significant difference in mortality between the two groups (p=0.786).Conclusion: Tracheostomy is a good choice in terms of alleviating the chronic patient burden in our country where there is limited pediatric intensive care capacity

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 6 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
