A Randomized Control Trial for Patient Reported Outcomes and Safety in Outpatient Thyroid Lobectomy
To compare same-day discharge and overnight (or longer) observation practices and learn more about the differences in patient preferences, safety outcomes, and economic and resource impact
Iodine Uptake After a Low Iodine Diet
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the difference in thyroid uptake of a low dose radioactive iodine (10 MBq 123-I or 37 MBq 123-I) in athyreotic patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma before and after a low iodine diet (LID) of 7 days. The main question it aims …
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 Trial Comparing Transoral Endoscopic Thyroidectomy Vestibular Approach (TOETVA) and Conventional Open Thyroidectomy
To determine if transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy vestibular approach (TOETVA) is a safe and effective procedure compared to traditional open thyroidectomy. Surgical outcomes, patients' satisfaction, voice and swallowing outcomes will be assessed.
Ultrasound-Guided Thyroid Cartilage Plane Block vs Ultrasound-Guided Traditional Superior Laryngeal Nerve Block for Awake Fiberoptic Intubation in Patients With Limited Neck Mobility Undergoing Cervical Spine Fixation
The aim of the work to compare between the effectiveness and safety of ultrasound-guided superior laryngeal nerve block through surface injection of local anesthetic solution on the thyroid cartilage and ultrasound-guided traditional superior laryngeal nerve block on quality of airway anesthesia for awake fiberoptic intubation in patients with limited neck …
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.
Optimizing Care for Older Adults Through Thyroid Hormone Deprescribing
The proposed study focuses on testing a novel adapted evidence-based multilevel intervention, Deprescribing Thyroid Hormone In Older Adults (D-THIO), to support thyroid hormone deprescribing (dose de-escalation and/or discontinuation) in older adults with thyroid hormone overtreatment and/or misuse and reduce patient harm. Findings from this study will lay the groundwork for …
A Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Oral Armour Thyroid Compared to Synthetic T4 for the Treatment of Primary Hypothyroidism in Adult Participants
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Armour Thyroid treatment compared with synthetic T4 in subjects who have primary hypothyroidism and are currently stabilized (i.e., in-range thyroid-stimulating hormone \[TSH\]) on synthetic T4 treatment. This study will also therefore evaluate the efficacy and safety of dose conversion from synthetic …
