NCT ID: NCT05579782 Phase: NA Status: COMPLETED Enrollment: 80 Completion: 2024-12-31
Conditions
Postoperative Hypoparathyroidism, Thyroid Disease, Thyroid Neoplasms, Thyroid Cancer
Interventions
NIRAF Detection Technology
Summary
This study describes a single center, randomized, single-blinded clinical trial to assess the clinical benefits of the use of near infrared autofluorescence (NIRAF) detection with an FDA-cleared device 'Parathyroid Eye (PTeye)' for identifying parathyroid glands during total thyroidectomy. It compares risk-benefits and outcomes in patients undergoing total thyroidectomy where NIRAF detection with PTeye for parathyroid identification is either used or not used.
Primary Outcome
Subjects With Transient Hypoparathyroidism.
