Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of early conversion tracheostomy from endotracheal intubation ET to percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy PDT in traumatic brain-injured patients requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation
Detailed Description: This is a prospective randomized trial to evaluate the efficacy of early less than or equal to 72 hours versus late 10 to 14 days conversion from endotracheal intubation to percutaneous dilatational translaryngeal tracheostomy for mechanical ventilation of traumatic brain injured patients

The primary efficacy parameter will be the number of days on mechanical ventilation

Secondary objectives include

Number of days in the hospital
To assess the incidence of ventilator-acquired pneumonia in each group
To assess the incidence of accidental extubation in each group
To assess the incidence of death in each group
