A new Postcricoid Laryngeal Surface Electrode offers excellent results for monitoring the larynx during surgery. This device aids in identifying the recurrent laryngeal nerve, improving upon previous nerve stimulator methods.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Recurrent laryngeal nerve identification in head and neck surgery lags behind other nerves.
  • Existing electronic nerve stimulators lack effective laryngeal monitoring methods.
  • Accurate nerve identification is crucial for preventing vocal cord dysfunction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel Postcricoid Laryngeal Surface Electrode.
  • To evaluate its efficacy in electromyographic monitoring of the larynx.
  • To improve recurrent laryngeal nerve identification during thyroid and parathyroid surgery.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a Postcricoid Laryngeal Surface Electrode.
  • Utilizing the electrode for electromyographic monitoring of the larynx.
