Brief summary

Titration of neuromuscular block (NMB) plays a key role in intraoperative recurrent laryngeal nerve monitoring during thyroid surgery. Aim to titrate sugammadex dose based on neuromuscular block degree as a surgeon friendly protocol with high intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) quality.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Feasibility in neural monitoring	through surgery completion, an average of 2 hours	EMG amplitude

Secondary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Quality of surgical relaxation	through surgery completion, an average of 2 hours	patient movement assessed as severe, mild or none by a departmental scale (none=no movement, mild: any movement did not interfere operation, severe: any movement interrupt operation)
