What this trial studies

This interventional study evaluates a structured active follow-up program for adults who have recently undergone thyroid surgery.

Eligible participants are 18 to 75 years old, speak Chinese, and have the necessary smartphone and internet access to participate in online follow-up visits. The study is conducted at West China Hospital of Sichuan University and is led by Yu Feng. Key outcomes will include follow-up adherence and potential improvements in postoperative management and survival-related indicators over at least one year.
