Core Tip	With the sudden onset coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), guidelines for patient care were rapidly evolving to protect both providers and patients. However, it has yet to be determined if performing tracheostomies earlier or later was more beneficial for outcomes in patients infected with COVID-19. This review assesses studies that discuss the timing of tracheostomies in COVID-19 patients to establish appropriate guidelines for best patient outcomes.
