Clinical Trial Summary

Tracheotomy weaning and decannulation are one of the important problems in the neurosurgical care unit. Aside from medical, psychological, sociological, economical and ethics problems, tracheotomy increases the duration of the hospital stay and conditions the secondarily future medical care (better re-education after the injury). However, according to investigators practices, that patients who were decannulated with success can go into a secondary care residence more easily. This research will demonstrate that all patients included can be decannulated without risk of a new recannulation in the 96 hours.


Clinical Trial Description

Brain injury patients with alertness disorders, wake-up delay and / or swallowing disorders, frequently have a tracheotomy. This tracheotomy is often a problem when it comes to find a bed in a secondary care unit, which is better adapted to the patient rehabilitation. Unfortunately, there is little room to accept this type of patient. It is therefore appropriate to do the weaning during the neurosurgery unit stay. Bibliographical studies indicate few recommendations as to weaning outside intensive care units. In the neurosurgery units at the University Hospital of Bordeaux, during 3 years (2014-2016), investigators have practiced 29 decannulations without recannulation, over 37 brain injury patients, with a multi-professional team (neurosurgeon, physiotherapist, nurse, caregiver…) to produce a weaning process. From where investigators hypothesis: using a multi-professional weaning process, checking the patient's stability during the different weaning steps, can lead to decide to decannulate or not without any risk. ;
