Extract

In this paper, I shall mention a survey I undertook in September 1986 on the prevalence and aetiology of tracheostomy among children in the U.K. (Jennings, 1987). Four hundred and fifty-five members of the British Association of Otolaryngologists were circulated with a questionnaire and 58 per cent responded.
