Abstract
A number of percutaneous tracheostomy devices are now available commercially. We report a preliminary clinical study of the use of the 'Rapitrach' kit (Fresenius, Runcorn, Cheshire, UK). Twenty critically ill adult patients underwent tracheostomy using the kit. Nineteen of the procedures were carried out at the bedside in the intensive therapy unit. Correct tube placement was achieved in all cases.
