Summary

The chances of survival in premature babies, especially in babies born under 28 weeks, have increased in recent years, and comorbidities also increase. Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), one of the premature problems, is one of them. After a while, babies with heavy BPD are discharged with the support of a home-type mechanical ventilator by opening a tracheostomy. Tracheostomy procedure is performed by specialist doctors of otolaryngology under general anesthesia in the operating room conditions in newborns. Complications of this procedure such as bleeding, skin necrosis, decanulation, trachea laceration and infection in the early period can be seen. In the long term, in addition to complications such as formation of tracheal granulation tissue, ulceration, laceration due to the procedure, babies with tracheostomy may develop nutrition and speech problems and neurodevelopmental problems.

In the literature, there is no comprehensive clinical follow-up study involving early and late clinical results related to newborns undergoing tracheostomy. In this study, early and late follow-up results (indications, anthropometric measurements, mechanical ventilation and oxygen deposition times, complications, tracheostomy closure times, tracheostomy closure times, neurodevelopmental patients in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Hacettepe University Ihsan Dogramaci Children's Hospital. results, accompanying other comorbidities, etc.).
