COVID-19 predominately affects safety net hospitals. Tracheostomies improve outcomes and decrease length of stay for patients. Our objectives are to determine if (1) tracheostomies have similar complication mortality rates as non-COVID-19 (2) the effectiveness our tracheostomy protocol at a hospital.Patients who underwent Los Angeles County Hospital between August 2009 2020 were included. Demographics, SARS-CoV-2 status, body mass index (BMI), Charlson Co-morbidity Index (CCI), intubation,...
