Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. To evaluate the use of ICG angiography to assess parathyroid gland function after thyroid surgery and thereby, take appropriate steps to prevent postoperative hypocalcemia 2. To compare the incidence of postoperative hypocalcemia after ICG guided assessment of parathyroid function with that of conventional methodsTimepoint: Postoperative Day 0 and postoperative day 1

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To find the correlation between parathyroid fluorescence after ICG dye injection and POD0 and POD1 calcium levels and POD1 PTH levelsTimepoint: Postoperative day 0 and postoperative day 1
