Recovery Rate in Secondary Hypothyroidism
The aim of this project is to assess the rate of recovery of secondary hypothyroidism in patients with pituitary disorders.
RFA Treatment for Papillary Thyroid Microcarcinoma
Thyroid surgery has always been the mainstay of treatment for thyroid cancer. Thyroid surgery carries a low risk of complications that include recurrent or superior laryngeal nerve injury leading to voice changes, hypoparathyroidism, hypothyroidism with need for thyroid hormone supplementation, and unsightly scarring. Although many patients with thyroid cancer find …
Minimally Invasive Treatments of the Thyroid
This is a prospective cohort study to test Minimally Invasive Treatments of the Thyroid (MITT) as potential alternative to surgery in patients with Papillary Thyroid MicroCarcinoma (PTMC)
Shared Care Thyroid Cancer Follow-up Utilizing Thyroid Cancer Assessment Reminder System (TCARS) Study - A Pilot Study.
This study aims to assess the feasibility of a shared-care model for low-risk differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients, primary care practitioners (PCPs) and the tertiary care center utilizing a digital health-based thyroid cancer assessment reminder system (TCARS) in Medable with an expedited referral to specialists for rapid assessment in case …
Understanding, Diagnosis and Monitoring of Thyroid Hormone Action Defects
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the neurological and cardiological phenotype of patients with resistance to thyroid hormone (RTH) syndromes beta and alpha (RTHß and RTHa) due to dominant negative variants in the genes encoding the thyroid hormone receptors alpha (THRA) and beta (THRB). The main …
Nomogram for Predicting Difficult Transoral and Submental Thyroidectomy
No prior studies have stratified the difficulty of transoral and submental thyroidectomy (TOaST). The investigators aimed to investigate preoperative factors as indicators of difficult TOaSTs and to develop a predictive model accordingly.
The EMIRATES Study
This pilot study will take place in thyroid outpatient clinics. It will have two study arms running in consecutive order: first, a Control arm where standard care will take place without PDA-TC, then a Patient Decision Aid (PDA) arm where the PDA-TC is implemented into the clinical practice. Within each …
A Prospective, Single-arm, Multi-centre, Blinded, Observational, Diagnostic Accuracy Study With a Diagnostic Medical Product
After thyroid surgery, 0.6 to 4% of patients develop postoperative bleeding. 90% of this postoperative bleeding occurs within the first 48 hours. Most of the time, the complications are rapidly progressing and require immediate attention. Up to 0.6% of patients with postoperative bleeding die. In a clinical study with postoperative …
Intraoperative Monitoring to Predict Postoperative Complications After Thyroidectomy
The goal of this study is to evaluate the role of intraoperative continous and intermittent neuromonitoring and intraoperative parathormone (PTH) to predict postoperative nerve morbidity and hypocalcemia.
Patient Perceptions of Robotic, Endoscopic and Open Thyroid Surgery
Robotic thyroid surgery offers certain improvements in cosmesis and postoperative recovery. The study aimed to describe patients' concerns in choosing surgical approach and how these attitudes affect preferences for robotic thyroidectomy (RT), endoscopic thyroidectomy (ET) and conventional open thyroidectomy (OT), with the long-term goal of promoting RT.
