Standardizing Intraoperative Nerve Monitoring in Endocrine Surgery

Inconsistent practices in intraoperative nerve monitoring (IONM) hinder surgical outcomes in endocrine procedures.

  • Key variability exists in techniques, signal interpretation, and outcome documentation.
  • Essential standardization areas include defining signal loss and reporting technical settings.

Implementing these consensus recommendations can enhance data quality and outcome evaluation in endocrine surgery.

  • Improved comparisons across studies could support stronger evidence generation for future practices.
