Electromyographic endotracheal tube placement during thyroid surgery in neuromonitoring of recurrent laryngeal nerve

Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is widely used in thyroid surgery. This study aimed to investigate the influence of neck extension on electromyographic (EMG) endotracheal tube displacement and to determine the necessity of routinely checking the final electrode position after the patient had b...
