Clinical Trial Summary

The mean of this study is to compare primary and secondary closure of tracheo-cutaneous fistulas and evaluate the differences in outcomes between both techniques.


Clinical Trial Description

In this study the investigators wish to recruit patients with a tracheotomy that has been installed for various reasons and that is ready for closure. The investigators intend to randomly allocate them a mean of closure, either primary or secondary. Once the fistula is closed, the investigators will follow them over a substantial period of time to compare outcomes of each mean of closing. Different questionnaires will be used to best evaluate a range of variables. ;
