Garrubba M et al. – In the papers the authors appraised, patients with a tracheostomy tube in situ discharged from an ICU to a general ward who received care from a dedicated multidisciplinary team as compared with standard care showed reductions in time to decannulation, length of stay and adverse events. Impacts on quality of care were not reported. These results should be interpreted with caution due to the methodological weaknesses in the historical control studies.
