WeChat-supported neck exercises after thyroidectomy
A telehealth program using a WeChat mini program tests if guided neck exercises after thyroid surgery help early recovery and quality of life.
-
NIRAF-guided identification of parathyroids during thyroidectomy
A wearable near-infrared autofluorescence device is being tested to help surgeons find and protect the parathyroid glands during thyroid surgery in adults.

Dexmedetomidine to improve waking and reduce coughing after thyroid surgery
This will test whether giving dexmedetomidine from before anesthesia and continuing it during thyroid surgery reduces coughing, agitation, and the amount of anesthetic or opioid needed when waking up.
-
Cold (non-thermal) plasma to improve healing and reduce complications after thyroid removal
This will test whether applying helium-based non-thermal (cold) plasma during total thyroidectomy helps wounds heal faster and reduces pain, inflammation, and infections in adults having their thyroid removed.

-
Improving prediction for challenging thyroid surgeries
This study is testing a new way to predict how challenging thyroid surgeries will be by looking at different health factors to help doctors perform the surgery better.
-
Developing a scoring tool for robotic thyroid surgery performance
This study is trying to create a scoring tool to help doctors measure how well they perform robotic thyroid surgeries, with the aim of improving patient care.
