Liu JB, et al. - Researchers performed cohort study to investigate whether thyroidectomy-specific outcomes vary among hospitals, whether the addition of thyroidectomy-specific variables affects risk adjustment, and whether differences in hospital performance are associated with thyroidectomy-specific care processes. As per findings, thyroidectomy-specific national hospital quality improvement metrics could include postoperative hypocalcemia and recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, but not hematoma. Improvement in the care of these patients could be achieved with strategies aimed at reducing these complications after thyroidectomy.
