1 2 nd Joint International Meeting JIVD and ERCA March 2015, Lyon, France NIV as an alternative to tracheotomy Jacques Cotting MD PICU CHUV, Lausanne, Switzerland March 2015

2 NIV as an alternative to tracheostomy? To answer the question First to review Ø Epidemiology of tracheostomy in children Ø Indications Ø Outcomes Secondly to review Laryngotracheal lesions NIV and tracheostomy

3 There is few review on tracheostomy in children Pitzburg experience 1991 to 1995 (Tantinikorn W. 2003) 185 tracheostomy, age 3.8±5.3 years, 55% 1year Indications: upper airway obstruction (60%) ventilatory support (30%) Late complications minor 60%, major 5% Mortality: 13.3% Operative procedure in 43% with 64% of decannulation Tantinikorn W and al: Outcome in Pediatric Tracheotomy. Am J Otolaryngol 2003;24:

4 There is few review on tracheostomy in children Aukland experience, , (Mahadevan M. 2007) 122 tracheostomy, age 7.8 months, 66% 1year Indications: craniofacial and subglottic (70%), ventilatory support (30%) Late complications 52% Mortality: 14%, 2 patients from tracheostomy complication Decannulation in 75% Mahadevan M and al: Pediatric Tracheotomy: 17 year review.

6 There is few review on tracheostomy in children Turkey 37-years experience, , (Oezmen S. 2009) 282 tracheostomy, age 27 months, 23% 1year Indications: upper airway obstruction (72%) of those infections (50%) (Haemophilus) ventilatory support (28%) Late complications 19% Mortality: 19%, 3 patients from tracheostomy complication Decannulation in 35% Oezmen S. and all: Pediatric tracheotomies: A 37-year experience in 282 children.

8 Tracheostomy in children There is few national analysis Maxwell and McMilland 2014 Using the US Kids Inpatient Database From 1997 to 2009, all data of US children hospitals (0-18 y) Focused on tracheostomy in children with congenital heart disease Maxwell and McMillan (2014), Tracheostomy in children with congenital heart disease: a national analysis of the Kids Inpatient Database. PeerJ 2:e568; DOI /peerj.568

9 Tracheostomy in children Maxwell and McMilland 12 years analysis All Tracheostomy performed: In Congenital Heart Disease = 9.6% Note: Much higher than in Europa CHD admissions Tracheostomy in CHD =3.5% Note that CHD patients could have many admissions Maxwell and McMillan (2014), Tracheostomy in children with congenital heart disease: a national analysis of the Kids Inpatient Database. PeerJ 2:e568; DOI /peerj.568

11 Maxwell and McMilland a 12 years analysis They observed Ø Ø increased number of tracheostomy performed over the time in both paediatric and congenital heart disease (CHD) patients CHD No CHD Ø Days from admission to tracheo 35 d 30 d Ø LOS (days) Ø Hospital charges ($) Ø Discharge at home 41% 35% Ø With home health 28% 16% Ø Long term Care 31% 48% Ø Mortality 16% 7% Maxwell and McMillan (2014), Tracheostomy in children with congenital heart disease: a national analysis of the Kids Inpatient Database.

12 Children at Risk for in-hospital mortality following tracheotomy (Berry J.G. 2010) Kids Inpatients Database (1997, 2000, 2003 and 2006) Admissions Tracheotomy performed Annual mortality ranged from 7.7% to 8.5% Observed higher mortality rate in < 1 year compared to 1-4 y : 10-13% vs 1-4% CHD vs no CHD 13-19% vs 6-7% Prematurity vs without 13-19% vs 6-7% Lower mortality observed in children with upper airway obstruction Berry J and all (2010). Patient characteristics associated with in-hospital mortality in children following tracheotomy. Arch Dis Child 95(9):

14 Laryngotracheal stenosis Congenital stenosis 15% Laryngomalacia Vocal cord paresis (uni-bilateral) Subglottic stenosis Web, kystes, hemangioma Acquired stenosis 85% Prevalence 1970 : 12-20% of intubations 1990 : 1 8% >2000 : 0.9-3%

18 Paediatric non-invasive ventilation (NIV) NIV use has increased markedly over the last 10 years (Hull 2014) Commonly used in most PICU In some high dependency unit NIV at home followed by tertiary respiratory units Published evidence for use of VNI in acute or chronic respiratory failure remain relatively weak in children It is now very unlikely that there will be any more randomised controlled trials for this intervention Hull J.

25 Finally, to respond to the question With the important progress of NIV in children Tracheostomy versus VNI is no more a choice VNI use is mandatory for the majority of children Tracheostomy must be view as temporarily option for Some stage of laryngotracheal reconstruction Rare severe cranio-facial trauma
