Objective To analyze the application effect of preoperative neck tilt angle measurement in thyroid cancer patients undergoing daytime surgery, and to provide reference materials for related personnels research work. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 80 thyroid cancer patients who underwent surgery in the daytime ward of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xian Jiaotong University from June 2021 to March 2022. They were divided into an observation group (n=41) and a control group (n=39). Both groups underwent radical thyroid cancer surgery. The observation group underwent preoperative measurement of the maximum angle of neck tilt back, and the intraoperative position was less than the measured maximum value. The control group used traditional positioning, Compare and analyze the surgical time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative drainage volume, incidence of thyroid surgery position syndrome (SPNV), and postoperative satisfaction between two groups of patients. Results Compared with the control group, the experimental group had no statistically significant surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative drainage volume. The incidence of thyroid surgery position syndrome (SPNV) in the observation group 24 hours after surgery was lower than that in the control group, and patient satisfaction was significantly higher than that in the control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). Conclusion Preoperative neck tilt angle measurement can significantly reduce the incidence of thyroid surgery position syndrome (SPNV) 24 hours after surgery, improve patient satisfaction, and can be promoted for use in daytime surgery.
