NCT02493881 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 337

Last updated 2015-07-10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators hypothesized that, sometimes the posterior branch of the recurrent laryngeal nerve may also have motor function. The investigators aimed to evaluate motor function of the branches in the branching recurrent laryngeal nerves in this study.

Conditions

  • Recurrent Laryngeal Nerve Injuries

Interventions

DEVICE

intraoperative neuromonitoring

NIM-Response 3.0 Intraoperative Neuromonitoring System (Medtronic Xomed, Jacksonville, FL, USA) was used to record the EMG amplitude signal for the anterior and/or posterior branches of recurrent laryngeal nerves (RLNs).
