P62 Table 1The impact of timing of tracheostomy on Intensive Care Unit Length of Stay Mean(SD) ICU LoS (days) P value Early tracheostomy (&lt;10 days) n=10 31(14) p=0 005 Late tracheostomy (≥10 days &lt;27 days) n=82 38(15) Delayed tracheostomy (≥27 days) n=32 46(17) ConclusionThe low mortality rate suggests appropriate patient selection for tracheostomy, but also makes analysis of potential influences on mortality difficult to ascertain Our data suggests timing of tracheostomy could impact on ICU LoS This data could inform practice surrounding tracheostomy insertion during future global pandemics
