Summary

Total of 100 patients are included in this is a prospective observational study to evaluate the role of airway ultrasound (USG) in assessing vocal cord mobility in patients undergoing thyroid surgery. patients will be scanned preoperatively by airway ultrasound which will be compared to post operative ultrasound scans.

Conditions

  • Vocal Cord Movement Assessment by Airway Ultrasound

Interventions

DEVICE

airway ultrasound for vocal cords movement assessment.

Glottic aperture will be scanned using 7.5 megahertz (MHz) linear transducer portable ultrasound machine. after getting the best acoustic window, true, false vocal cords arytenoid movements will be visualized. Individual cord will be focused and doppler velocity will be measured for both the cords.
